What happened
Tenant applied for an order determining that the Landlord entered the rental unit illegally, altered the locking system without providing replacement keys, and harassed, obstructed, coerced, threatened or interfered with the Tenant. The Landlord changed the locks and denied the Tenant access to the rental unit and her belongings after the Tenant's partner moved out.
The ruling
The Landlord entered the rental unit illegally, changed the locks and harassed the Tenant. The Landlord must pay the Tenant $2,048 and an administrative fine of $10,000 to the LTB. The Landlord must return the Tenant's remaining belongings by February 10, 2025.
