What happened

Landlords applied to terminate the tenancy and evict the Tenant due to substantial interference and persistent late payment of rent. The Landlords served the Tenant with an N5 notice for substantial interference, alleging the Tenant failed to pay a key deposit, change utilities to his name, and provide proof of tenant's insurance. The Landlords also served an N8 notice for persistent late payment of rent.

The ruling

The Tenant is ordered to provide proof of tenant's liability insurance to the Landlords by January 15, 2022. If the Tenant fails to do so, the Landlords may apply to terminate the tenancy and evict the Tenant. The Tenant is also ordered to pay the Landlords $201 for the cost of filing the application.
