Chapter 47 – Monday July 15, 2019 – Saturday July 28, 2019
The harassment escalates. The Stampers and Pollingtons begin involving other people not known to Marie or myself. To this point there have been at least fifteen complaints to police (at least 8 from our landlord and his crew) resulting in 14 responses, and charges being laid in two cases (against Jeremy Stamper). The tally is at 18 hours 45 minutes of hearing time at the LTB, in 14 hearings, two by telephone, eleven in person (counting the Case Management Hearing and mediation session of May 19, 2017 as hearings). It has also used up 9 hours and 51 minutes of a mediator’s time. On the criminal side, it has used up whatever time the pre-enquete hearing used when process was issued on Pollington’s private complaint, and ne short appearance. Call it two hearings, 50 minutes of a judge's time. The cops are increasingly hostile.

This is a quick summary/placeholder post done on my phone. There was yet another LTB hearing, this time a telephone merits hearing for John's L2 eviction application. After a somewhat hapless Joe was brought up to speed (more on that later) over the weekend, Joe waited until the last minute to ask for the application …

Chapter XYZ-2 – Saturday, July 25, 2020
“Our job is crime prevention,” Deputy Chief Bergen told reporters. “And if people are feeling comfortable enough to affix graffiti or paint or anything like that onto statues or onto our roadways, that is a criminal code offence or mischief.”

There have been at least eleven complaints to police (at least 6 from our landlord and his crew) resulting in 10 responses, and charges being laid in one case. Municipal Law Enforcement had also expended approximately 5 man-days (including two man days expended sitting in an LTB waiting room, waiting to be called as witnesses). There has also been in excess of twenty five days of entry to the unit to "repair" or "inspect".
