What happened

The Landlord applied to terminate the tenancy and for compensation due to damage caused by the Tenant's guest. The guest kicked and broke a glass door and assaulted another tenant. The Tenant failed to repair the damage or pay for it within the 7-day voiding period of the N5 notice. The Tenant was absent from the hearing. The Board also considered multiple other incidents involving the Tenant's guests when deciding not to grant relief from eviction.

The ruling

The tenancy is terminated effective June 22, 2025. The Tenant must pay the Landlord $386.00, which covers $200.00 for damages and the $186.00 application fee. This amount is due by June 22, 2025. The Landlord can file for eviction with the Sheriff starting June 23, 2025. Relief from eviction was denied due to the severity and ongoing nature of issues caused by the Tenant's guests and the Landlord having already accommodated the Tenant to the point of undue hardship.
