Tenant's review motion of eviction order dismissed as frivolous and vexatious under Rule 2.1.
The applicant tenant sought to review a decision denying an extension of time to appeal a Landlord and Tenant Board eviction order for non-payment of rent.
The court issued a notice under Rule 2.1 of the Rules of Civil Procedure, noting the applicant had not paid rent since March 2024 and his allegations against government entities did not provide a legal excuse for non-payment.
After the applicant repeatedly failed to provide a reasoned legal basis for his review motion, the court dismissed the motion as frivolous and vexatious.
The court also ordered that the applicant may not commence or continue any legal proceeding against the respondent landlord without prior written permission from an administrative judge.
Extension of time to appeal eviction denied; tenant's conspiracy claims irrelevant to non-payment of rent.
The applicant tenant sought an extension of time to appeal a Landlord and Tenant Board order evicting him for non-payment of rent.
The applicant admitted to not paying rent but alleged a vast conspiracy by the Federal Government and others to sabotage his life, seeking $30 billion in damages.
The Divisional Court dismissed the motion, finding that the proposed appeal lacked merit, raised no error of law by the Board, and sought relief unavailable under the Residential Tenancies Act.
Extension of time to appeal eviction order granted where tenant brought rent arrears into good standing.
The tenant brought a motion to extend the time to file an appeal from a Landlord and Tenant Board eviction order.
The landlord sought to quash the appeal as an abuse of process, arguing it lacked merit and was brought to delay eviction.
The court noted the tenant had brought his rent into good standing and was making efforts to participate.
Finding the appeal was not completely devoid of merit and not an abuse of process given the lack of accumulating arrears, the court granted the extension of time on the condition that the tenant continue to pay rent on time.
