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 N12 notice stating they in good faith require the rental unit for their child's residential occupation. The Tenant vacated the rental unit, but the Landlord listed the unit for rent shortly after.
The ruling
The Landlord served an N12 notice in bad faith, as the Landlord listed the rental unit for rent shortly after the Tenant vacated. The Landlord's child did not occupy the unit for at least one year as required. The Tenant is awarded $7,673 in compensation, and the Landlord must pay a $7,000 administrative fine.
