The court scheduled a commercial lease injunction motion after the landlord undertook to maintain the status quo.
The applicant tenant sought an urgent interim injunction to prevent the respondent landlord from re-letting premises after a purported lease termination and eviction, which occurred amidst the COVID-19 pandemic and associated court adjournments.
The landlord alleged lease breaches due to improper renovations, while the tenant claimed bad faith.
During a case conference, the landlord provided an undertaking to maintain the status quo, thereby obviating the need for an urgent interim injunction order.
The court then established a schedule for the main injunction motion and the landlord's anticipated counter-application under the Commercial Tenancies Act, addressing issues of expert evidence and potential arbitration.
Tenant's appeal of eviction order quashed as manifestly devoid of merit; stay lifted.
The landlord brought a motion to quash the tenant's appeal of a Landlord and Tenant Board eviction order for non-payment of rent.
The tenant owed approximately $50,000 in rent arrears.
The court found that the tenant's grounds of appeal either raised questions of fact or were manifestly devoid of merit.
The motion was granted, the appeal was quashed, and the stay of the eviction order was lifted.
