On July 12, 2012 the Commission received a Notice of Appeal filed by the Appellant Stacey Lynn Arsenault (the Appellant).   

On July 13, 2012, Commission staff mailed a Notice of Appeal Hearing and a cover letter to the Appellant and to Angela Campbell, representing the Respondent Canada Mortgage & Housing Corporation (the Respondent).  Both the Notice and the cover letter informed the parties that a hearing would be held at the Commission's offices [a full address was provided] on Tuesday, July 24, 2012 at 9:30 a.m. 

On July 24, 2012 the hearing proceeded as scheduled.  The Appellant was not present.  Angela Campbell and Peter MacDonald were present to represent the Respondent. 

During the hearing, Commission staff checked with the Commission's receptionist to see if any last minute messages were left by the Appellant.  There were no such messages. 

The Commission finds that the Appellant has abandoned her appeal and Director's Order LD12-164 remains in full force and effect.

NOW THEREFORE, pursuant to the Island Regulatory and Appeals Commission Act and the Rental of Residential Property Act;

IT IS ORDERED THAT

1.  The Appellant has abandoned her appeal.
