What happened

Landlord applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict Tenant due to non-payment of rent. However, the Tenant had already vacated the rental unit before the application was filed, resulting in the Board's lack of jurisdiction to hear the case.

The ruling

The Landlord's application was dismissed due to lack of jurisdiction. The Tenant had already vacated the rental unit on October 7, 2021, before the Landlord filed the application on October 8, 2021. The Board advised that the Landlord may file an L10 application to collect money from a former tenant within the requisite time frame if he wishes to pursue the matter.
