Months? Try years.
I just had my final hearing this week for a case which has gone on for THREE YEARS.
I lost, thanks to an angry, dismissive, landlord centric adjudicator who was so disorganized she didn't even have my evidence in front of her, even though I sent it before the Board deadline. She blamed me because she didn't have the evidence, made me resend it and then refused to look at it anyway.
It was a harassment/illegal entry case from 2019. I made the mistake of mediating, then 4 months later the landlord breached and I filed for a reopening. It took 8 months to get a hearing date. Then the landlord's representative died (apparently) and we were told we'd get another hearing date in three months. We didn't get a date until 6 months later, on a week's notice.
