The landlord brought a motion to quash the tenant's appeal of an eviction order for rent arrears.
The tenant sought an adjournment to consult with counsel.
The court denied the adjournment, finding it to be a further delaying tactic, as the tenant had paid no rent for seven months despite claiming to have the funds.
The court found the appeal disclosed no question of law and was filed solely to obtain a stay and delay the landlord.
The motion to quash the appeal was granted, the stay was lifted, and costs were awarded to the landlord.
