Known Issues (news/court)

[lawsuit_or_court - insurance] An owner disputed a $7,500 insurance deductible charged to him after a pipe burst, and sought condo records; the corporation had already sued him in Court of King's Bench over the same dispute. The Tribunal Chair refused to accept the application, ruling s.68.4(3) of the Condominium Property Act barred CDRT filing while the court action proceeds. (2026-08-21); [lawsuit_or_court - bylaw enforcement (pets, rentals, noise, smoking, renovations, short-term rentals)] An owner disputed a $935.00 pest control chargeback and $624.68 in related legal collection fees (paid under protest totaling $1,559.68) assessed after a 2025 cockroach infestation report; the Tribunal refused to accept the application because the dispute arose before the CDRT's February 15, 2026 jurisdiction start date (time-barred under s.8(6)) and because the charges were chargebacks, not monetary sanctions under s.35, falling outside the Tribunal's jurisdiction.
