What happened

Tenants applied for an order determining that the Landlord substantially interfered with their reasonable enjoyment of the premises due to a worsening smell from a deceased tenant's unit.

The ruling

The Tenants' application is dismissed, but the Landlord is ordered to pay rent abatements to the Tenants for the 2-day period from January 10 to 12 when the Landlord should have responded more promptly to the severe smell.
