What happened

Landlord applied for eviction due to substantial interference, willful damage, illegal acts, and safety concerns. The application was dismissed, but Tenant was ordered to pay for some damages.

The ruling

The Landlord's application for eviction was dismissed, but the Tenant was ordered to pay $1,060.50 for damages to the carpet and door, plus $186.00 for the application filing fee. The Board considered the Tenant's long-term tenancy and the presence of a child in granting relief from eviction.
