What happened

Landlord applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict the Tenant due to a number of notices given to the Tenant to terminate the tenancy. However, the Landlord failed to properly and specifically identify the Tenant's rental unit in the notices, rendering them void.

The ruling

The Landlord's application is dismissed because the notices given to the Tenant fail to properly and specifically identify the Tenant's rental unit, rendering the notices void. The Board lacks jurisdiction to grant the Landlord's application to terminate the Tenant's tenancy and evict the Tenant based on the invalid notices.
