The Tenant's motion to set aside the eviction order is granted. The previous Section 78 Order remains in effect, with a new deadline for the Tenant to ensure all utility accounts are in good standing.
Tenant's breach was due to misinterpretation, not intentional, and utility arrears are not significant
Landlord applied to terminate the tenancy and evict the Tenant due to the Tenant's failure to meet a condition specified in a previous LTB order. The Tenant filed a motion to set aside the eviction order.
Landlord seeks eviction due to Tenant's inability to keep utilities in good standing.
Landlord produced a spreadsheet showing the Tenant's missed utility payments, which have caused the Landlord financial hardship.
Tenant argues there was no breach of the Section 78 Order due to misinterpretation of the wording.
Tenant has 2 children and monthly income under $3,000. Tenant made ongoing utility payments in good faith and has been making $250/month payments towards past arrears.
