Dispute

Damage to Property, Review Of Order, Substantial Interference

Notice

Serious impairment of safety (N7)

Landlord

S.L., L.A.

Tenant

X.G.

What happened

Landlords applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict Tenant, alleging that Tenant seriously impaired the safety of others and caused willful damage. The original application was dismissed because the N7 notice was found to be defective and the Landlords had already changed the locks, making the application moot. Landlords filed a request for review alleging serious errors in the original order, including arguments regarding the applicability of the Residential Tenancies Act and the handling of Tenant's possessions.

The ruling

The request to review order LTB-L-056557-25 is denied. The original order, which dismissed the Landlords' application for termination and eviction, is confirmed and remains unchanged. The Board found no serious error in the previous determination that the N7 notice was defective or that the application was moot due to the Landlords changing the locks.
