What happened

Tenants applied for an order determining that the Landlord gave a notice of termination in bad faith under section 48 of the Residential Tenancies Act. The Landlord delivered an N12 notice stating that his son required possession of the rental unit.

The ruling

The Landlord delivered the N12 notice in good faith, as he genuinely intended for his son to occupy the unit, and his son genuinely intended to occupy the unit. However, it became apparent that the son was not ready to live independently. The application is dismissed.
