What happened

Tenants applied for an order determining that the Landlord collected or retained money illegally. The key issues were whether the Landlord charged an illegal rent increase and failed to pay the required termination compensation.

The ruling

The Landlord is ordered to pay the Tenants $2,000 for the required termination compensation and $50 for the cost of filing the application. If the Landlord does not pay the full amount by the due date, they will owe interest on the outstanding balance.
