What happened

Landlord applied for an order requiring Tenant to pay for reasonable out-of-pocket costs the Landlord has incurred or will incur to repair or replace undue damage to property. The damage was allegedly caused wilfully or negligently by the Tenant, another occupant of the rental unit or someone the Tenant permitted in the residential complex.

The ruling

The Landlord's application is dismissed. The Landlord has failed to prove the Tenant, another occupant or person permitted by the Tenant wilfully or negligently caused undue damage to the rental unit or residential complex, and that the Landlord has incurred or will incur costs as a result.
