(2) The court or Tribunal shall not give judgment or make an order for possession, unless it is satisfied:
(a) as to whether or not there is a person in possession of the residential premises as:
(i) a tenant under a residential tenancy agreement, or
(ii) a former tenant holding over after termination of a residential tenancy agreement, and
(b) if there is such a person in possession of the residential premises and the plaintiff is not the landlord or former landlord under the residential tenancy agreement--that the person has had reasonable notice of the proceedings brought by the plaintiff.
(3) Failure to comply with this section does not invalidate or otherwise affect the judgment or order.
