What happened
Tenant applied for an order determining that the Landlord gave a N12 notice in bad faith. The Tenant vacated the rental unit as a result of the N12 notice, but the Landlord then listed the unit for rent shortly after the Tenant moved out.
The ruling
The Landlord served the N12 notice in bad faith, as the Landlord listed the unit for rent shortly after the Tenant vacated. The Tenant is awarded $16,352.21, which includes the rent differential, moving and storage expenses, and a fine to the LTB.
