What happened

Landlord applied to terminate the tenancy and evict the Tenant due to non-payment of rent, damage to the property, and substantial interference with the reasonable enjoyment of the premises by other tenants.

The ruling

The tenancy was terminated for non-payment of rent, but the Tenant was given an opportunity to void the eviction order by paying the outstanding amount. The Landlord's application for eviction due to damage and substantial interference was granted, but the Tenant was given a chance to continue the tenancy by correcting the behavior that led to the N5 notice.
