What happened
Landlord applied to terminate the tenancy and evict the Tenant due to undue damage to the rental unit caused by the Tenant's former boyfriend. The Tenant argued that the N5 notice was invalid due to lack of particulars.
The ruling
The Landlord's application was dismissed. The Tribunal found that the Tenant could not be held liable for the actions of her former boyfriend, who was not a tenant, occupant, or someone the Tenant permitted into the residential complex.
