What happened

Landlord applied to terminate the tenancy and evict the Tenant due to the Tenant's behavior, including spray painting security cameras, ripping out and throwing the HVAC unit from the balcony, and refusing entry to the rental unit. The Landlord alleged the Tenant's actions caused substantial interference, wilful damage, illegal acts, and impairment of safety.

The ruling

The Landlord proved the Tenant's behavior, including spray painting security cameras and ripping out and throwing the HVAC unit, constituted substantial interference, wilful damage, illegal acts, and impairment of safety. The Tenant did not attend the hearing to provide any mitigating circumstances. The Tenancy is terminated, and the Tenant must pay the Landlord $7,841.23 for the damage and application costs. If the Tenant does not vacate by the ordered date, they will owe daily compensation to the Landlord.
