What happened

Landlord applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict Tenants due to undue damage to the rental unit and failure to pay utility costs. The Tenants had already vacated the unit prior to the hearing.

The ruling

The Landlord's application is dismissed. The Landlord did not provide sufficient evidence to substantiate the claims for damages to the rental unit or unpaid utility costs. The Tenant shall pay the Landlord $250 for reasonable repair costs and $186 for the application filing fee, for a total of $436.
