L.J.A.B., S.K.B.

What happened

The Landlords applied for an order to terminate the tenancy for personal use (N12). The primary issue was whether the Landlords met the mandatory requirement to compensate the Tenants with one month's rent by the termination date specified in the notice. The termination date was April 30, 2025, but no compensation was paid by that date.

The ruling

The Landlords' application to terminate the tenancy for personal use was dismissed. The dismissal was based on the Landlords' failure to pay the required one month's rent compensation to the Tenants by the termination date of April 30, 2025, as strictly required by Section 55.1 of the Residential Tenancies Act, 2006.
