IN THE MATTER of the Rental of Residential Property Act, R.S.P.E.I. 1988, C. R 13.1,

and

IN THE MATTER of an appeal, under Section 25 of the Rental of Residential Property Act, by Valmore and Irene Arsenault (the Lessor) against Order No. LD95-037 of the Director of Residential Property dated February 7, 1995.

Thursday, March 23, 1995

John L. Blakney, Vice-Chair


Decision


The Commission has reviewed the appeal filed by the Lessors on February 22, 1995. Since neither they nor the Lessees chose to appear at the hearing or file any additional documentation, all we had before us were the documents on file with the Director when he made his decision.

The reason for the appeal is given as:

The order indicates lessees as at November 10, 1993, to be John and Pauline Doyle. This information is not correct - per Form 2. The lessees were Pauline Bernard and John P. Doyle and lessor was Valmore J. and Irene Arsenault on the date of November 10/93.

We note that Form 2, Application for Enforcement of Statutory or Other Conditions of Rental Agreement dated December 7, 1994 is signed "P Doyle, John P. Doyle". The Lessor's letter to Boyde White of January 18, 1995 refers to "John Doyle and Pauline Doyle" and "Mr. & Mrs. John Doyle" throughout. The Lessor gave the Commission a copy of the Lessor's letter dated November 24, 1994 to "John P. & Pauline Doyle".

All the evidence before us indicates the lessees are John and Pauline Doyle.

For the above reasons, the appeal is dismissed.
