What happened

Tenant applied for an order determining that Landlords gave a notice of termination in bad faith. The Landlords served the Tenant with an N12 Notice of Termination citing their intention to personally occupy the rental unit, but the Tenant alleged the Landlords failed to occupy the unit within a reasonable time.

The ruling

The Tenant proved the Landlords served the N12 Notice in bad faith. The Landlords must pay the Tenant $15,053, which includes $15,000 in general compensation and $53 for the cost of filing the application.
