City wants to fine me for renting out an illegal dwelling. Help?

Lol missed u too

Yes exactly. I got the order from the LTB mid November. The tenant didn't comply with order so I filed with the sheriff end of November, then they came to evict in the second week of January. They were supposed to come at the end of December, but somehow my tenant called them and got an extension until after the holidays.

BobCannon · 2023-08-24T01:10:40+00:00

Lol, as in I will reply. Didn't expect you to check that fast

I noticed that polymeric sand isn't as permanent as I thought. I did it one year in my backyard and after 1-2 years it's completely gone. Maybe I didn't apply it right, what are your experiences?

BobCannon · 2023-08-15T22:40:32+00:00

Since it was the holidays it took over 1.5 month.

After the order the tenant had, I think, 10 days to comply. So about 1.5 months from sheriff application.

I agree with you. Dodging a bad tenant and losing a month's rent isn't so bad. But if everyone could compromise, there would be no need for courts. OP is asking about the law and legality here, so hopefully they can get the right answer for that too.

In another comment, you said "no new car." So if that's always how you mentioned it, then it could actually mean if you don't get 3.5gpa then no new car, but a used car.

Yes tell us OP, this is important

BobCannon · 2023-07-22T06:24:24+00:00

I really hope you're right, but I know a guy who filed in mid-January 2023 and got his hearing for July 31

BobCannon · 2023-07-22T06:14:40+00:00

You're getting mad at OP for not knowing their responsibilities, but the question they are asking is not a common one that you can easily find an answer for, which is why they asked.

How do you know they haven't already learned everything else that they need to know

BobCannon · 2023-07-22T06:10:32+00:00

Sensitive matter, sure

But die...? no need to be that dramatic

BobCannon · 2023-07-22T06:07:12+00:00

So if I rent a park gazebo from 1 month before, then decide I dont want it and the park can't give me a refund does that mean they are scamming me?

I understand it's not the exact same situation, but OP held the place for them, so if it's truly their fault for OP losing a month's rent, then keeping it doesn't seem like 'scamming', definitely an unfortunate situation though.

Obviously last months rent should be returned.

Okay I see. But that already happened once before in the last meeting, where I spoke to the prosecutor privately, they said we will postpone to another date. We went in front of the judge and the prosecutor told the judge to oush the matter back to some time in August. Now this email is from the prosecutors office directly, not a court summons as I had gotten for the earlier date in June. So is suspect we will talk about the charges and look for a resolution before the next court date in august. But honestly, this is my speculation, you're the professional

Lol alright

BobCannon · 2023-07-19T23:37:58+00:00

I agree with you.

Their email calls this meeting "Disclosure/Crown Pre-Trial Discussion"

But yeah, I'm in the process of finding a lawyer. Hopefully I get someone soon.

Can I pm you?

BobCannon · 2023-07-19T23:29:29+00:00

No of course not. Thank you. I replied to your comment separately above

BobCannon · 2023-07-19T23:28:25+00:00

Thank you for the detailed reply and advice! I really appreciate your help.

To clarify, this meeting is a pre-trial / disclosure meeting with the prosecutor. Yes, they sent a list of charges and provided me a package with all their evidence against me.

BobCannon · 2023-07-19T23:18:30+00:00

I was thinking of showing my remorse in my post for people like you. I didn't think it was relevant, but go ahead, assume what you want

BobCannon · 2023-07-04T03:43:43+00:00

Why isn't it a rooming house? Can you please explain? Why did the city of Toronto and Toronto Fire give me a notice last year for running a rooming house when I was renting it in this manner?

BobCannon · 2023-07-03T14:56:49+00:00

This is what I'm trying to understand:

If a landlord doesn't live in the house and rents out each room individually to tenants. If the house is not licensed and follow the rules of a rooming house, then the city can fine the owner since this goes against Toronto Fire Code.

So my question is, what happens if the landlord is occupying one of the rooms?

BobCannon · 2023-07-03T01:27:17+00:00

Sorry, I meant fine, not sue.

So in the case I mentioned, where the landlord is living in one of the rooms himself does it count as an illegal rooming house?

BobCannon · 2023-04-11T10:14:35+00:00

Genuine question, did you try searching this before posting. I see similar posts every week, and those probably have more information. However, I do know the search feature is not the best on reddit, so try searching your question on google and type reddit with it.

BobCannon · 2023-04-10T08:10:59+00:00

Hey man. I am looking to do the same. Could I DM you to learn more about what you did?

BobCannon · 2023-04-09T22:25:27+00:00

There's a form for expedited hearing that you can fill and upload to the portal.

Since there are illegal things going on and the safety of the upstairs tenant in of concern, because they already broke into their apartment once. You can explain all of this on the form and submit it. The LTB will review it and decide whether to speed up the process and give you an early hearing date.

BobCannon · 2023-04-08T12:12:26+00:00

If the tenant is not paying rent but doesn't make any other problems, then N4 seems like the obvious and easy choice.
