What happened

Tenants applied for an order determining that the Landlord gave a notice of termination in bad faith. The Landlord served the Tenants with an N12 notice stating that the Landlord's child intended to move into the rental unit, but the Tenants later found that the Landlord's child did not actually move in.

The ruling

The Tenants proved that the Landlord served the N12 notice in bad faith, as the Landlord's child did not move into the rental unit within a reasonable time after the Tenants vacated. The Landlord is ordered to pay the Tenants $20,286.35, which includes $18,531 for the rent differential for 12 months and $1,702.35 for moving expenses.
