What happened

Tenant applied for an order determining that Landlord gave a notice of termination in bad faith. The Landlord served the Tenant an N12 notice claiming the Landlord's stepdaughter required the rental unit. The Tenant vacated the unit but disputed that the Landlord's stepdaughter actually moved in.

The ruling

The Tenant's application is dismissed. The Landlord did not serve the N12 notice in bad faith, and a person referred to in clause 48(1) of the Act did occupy the rental unit within a reasonable amount of time after the Tenant vacated.
