What happened
Tenant applied for an order determining that the Landlord gave a notice of termination in bad faith. The Landlord served the Tenant with an N13 notice indicating the intent to demolish the rental unit, but the building was subsequently sold instead of being demolished.
The ruling
The Tenant proved the Landlord served the N13 notice in bad faith. The Landlord must pay the Tenant $6,085, including $1,032 for rent differential, $5,000 for general compensation, and $53 for the application fee.
