The respondent landlord brought a motion to quash the appellant tenant's appeal of a Landlord and Tenant Board eviction order.
The tenant was in substantial rent arrears and had previously signed an agreement to terminate the tenancy, but remained in the premises partly due to the COVID-19 eviction stay.
On consent of the parties, the court ordered the tenant to make an interim rent payment and lifted the stay of eviction effective December 31, 2020, while encouraging the parties to negotiate a global settlement of all outstanding issues.
