British Columbia, Canada


The following excerpt is from The Owners, Strata Plan LMS 3671 v. Turner et al, 2018 BCCRT 834 (CanLII):

21. The Act and tribunal rules are silent on the effects of a change in ownership of a strata lot that occurs during the tribunal decision process. I addressed this issue in Kervin v. The Owners, Strata Plan LMS 3011, 2017 BCCRT 146, finding the tribunal has discretion to dismiss, refuse to resolve, or continue to resolve a dispute when an applicant sells their strata lot.
