The appellants appealed a Landlord and Tenant Board decision terminating their tenancy.
The appeal was adjourned on the condition that the appellants pay rent as it fell due.
During the COVID-19 pandemic, a case management conference was scheduled, but the appellants failed to attend and had failed to pay rent for April and May.
The Divisional Court dismissed the appeal due to non-attendance and non-compliance with the adjournment order, granting the landlord permission to move for an eviction order, while allowing the appellants to move to set aside the dismissal if they had not abandoned the appeal.
