Facts:

• Petitioners, Robert Galasso and Janjira Saejan, were tenants in a building owned by Chartwell Construction Ltd.

• Petitioners contested the eviction, claiming rent was sent to Chartwell’s legal counsel amid allegations of misappropriation.
• Chartwell sought possession through a Dispute Resolution – Direct Request, arguing the tenants accepted tenancy termination by not paying rent or disputing the notice timely??.

Issues:

Court's Ruling:

• The court extended the interim stay of possession, allowing the judicial review application to proceed.
• It noted some merit in the tenants' arguments regarding payment methods and timelines, despite Chartwell’s contention of proper notice and procedure following the Residential Tenancy Act??.

Costs/Damages:

• Not explicitly detailed in the provided segments, but the focus was on the stay of possession and the right to tenancy, rather than financial compensation.
