Frequently Asked Questions
Can I be evicted immediately?
No. Even in urgent cases, the LTB process must be followed. Only a Sheriff can physically remove a tenant after a proper eviction order.
What if I pay rent arrears before the hearing?
For L1 applications, if you pay all arrears plus the $53 filing fee before the hearing, the application is typically dismissed.
