What happened

The Landlord applied for eviction and rent arrears. At the hearing, the Tenants challenged the validity of the N4 notice, arguing the amount was incorrect. The Landlord admitted the notice failed to account for a payment from a housing agency. Consequently, the termination application was dismissed, and the Landlord amended the application to seek rent arrears only.

The ruling

The application for eviction was dismissed because the N4 notice was invalid due to an incorrect calculation of arrears. The Landlord was granted an order for rent arrears only. The Tenants are ordered to pay $10,734.17 to the Landlord by January 15, 2026. The tenancy continues, and the rent deposit remains held by the Landlord.
