What happened

Landlord applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict Tenants due to non-payment of rent. The application was dismissed because the Landlord served an invalid N4 Notice with incorrect rental period details, which could confuse the Tenants about the case against them and their rights to void the notice.

The ruling

The Landlord's application for termination of tenancy and eviction due to non-payment of rent was dismissed. The dismissal was based on the Landlord's use of an invalid N4 Notice, which contained incorrect rental period details. These errors were deemed to potentially confuse the Tenants about the allegations against them and their rights to void the notice, violating the requirements of the Residential Tenancies Act, 2006.
