The plaintiff landlord corporation brought an application under the Residential Tenancies Act, 2006 for a writ of possession and an order for payment of rent arrears and utilities, the monetary amounts exceeding the jurisdiction of the Landlord Tenant Board.
The respondent tenant admitted non-payment of rent but claimed he had been negotiating a business arrangement with the landlord's representative excusing him from payment.
The court found the respondent filed no sworn evidence supporting any such agreement and granted the relief sought, including a writ of possession, arrears, and partial indemnity costs of $4,250.00.
