The High Court dismissed an appeal by a tenant against a determination order issued by the Residential Tenancies Board, as the appeal was filed several months past the strict 21-day time limit set by statute. The court confirmed it has no jurisdiction to extend this statutory deadline, and even if it could, the criteria for an extension were not met in this case.
