Request to LTB for Review of an Order
Was your hearing unfair? Did the LTB make a serious mistake? You may be able to ask for a review of the decision.
The Landlord and Tenant Board (LTB) has the power to review its own decisions in limited circumstances, especially where there has been a serious error or a breach of procedural fairness.
A Request to Review an Order is not an appeal and is not a second chance to reargue your case. Instead, it is a specific remedy available to correct significant problems that affected the outcome of your hearing or resulted in an unfair order.
At Haider Khan Legal, our team can quickly assess whether you meet the test, and if so, prepare a powerful case for reconsideration.
-
You may be eligible if:
You did not receive notice of the hearing
You were unable to attend for reasons outside your control (e.g., illness, emergency)
The Board member made a serious factual or legal error
The order was issued based on false or incomplete evidence
You discovered new evidence that was not previously available
There was a denial of procedural fairness or natural justice
The LTB will only review an order if it is in the interests of justice to do so, and if your request meets the legal threshold set out in LTB Rules 29 and 31.
-
A Request to Review must generally be filed within 30 days of the date the order was issued. However, in rare cases, the LTB may extend this deadline if there is a compelling reason.
We recommend filing the request as soon as possible, especially if eviction enforcement is imminent.
