Priority Properties Inc. v Scobie – LTB Review Order Denied (2026 ONLTB 44749)

Review request denied in its entirety.
Original order LTB-L-016571-26 issued May 11, 2026 is confirmed and remains unchanged.
No new hearing was granted.

Landlord Priority Properties Inc. sought eviction of Tenant Chelsea Scobie for non-payment of rent.
Original order was issued on May 11, 2026 after a hearing the Tenant did not attend.
Tenant submitted a review request claiming family matters prevented participation but gave no supporting details.
Tenant also sought relief from eviction and a payment plan, which the Board found were not valid grounds for review.

The Board was not satisfied the Tenant was unable to reasonably participate, as no sufficient explanation of family circumstances was provided.
Notice of hearing was both mailed on March 30, 2026, and emailed on February 25, 2026; Tenant did not deny receipt.
Per So v. Canadian Mental Health Association (2024 ONSC 3371), a review request requires sufficient information supporting inability to participate or a serious error.
Section 83(1) discretionary relief does not apply independently at the review stage; Tenant's request for a payment plan is not grounds for review.
