Notice

Non-payment of rent (N4)

Landlord

S.K.

Tenant

B.L.

What happened

Landlord applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict Tenant due to failure to pay rent. The Landlord also claimed administration charges related to NSF cheques.

The ruling

The Landlord's application is dismissed because the N4 notice was defective and the Board does not have jurisdiction to terminate the tenancy on a defective notice.
