What happened

Landlord applied to terminate the tenancy and evict the Tenant due to an alleged illegal act and serious impairment of safety. The Landlord claimed the Tenant assaulted and threatened another tenant with a large sharpened stick.

The ruling

The Landlord's application was dismissed. The Adjudicator found that the Tenant's actions, while technically constituting minor assaults, were not serious enough to warrant eviction.
