What happened

Tenant applied for an order determining that the Landlord harassed, obstructed, coerced, threatened or interfered with the Tenant; changed the locks or the locking system to the rental unit or building without giving the Tenant replacement keys; entered the rental unit illegally; substantially interfered with the reasonable enjoyment of the rental unit or residential complex by the Tenant or by a member of the Tenant's household; and, withheld or deliberately interfered with the reasonable supply of a vital service, care service, or food that the Landlord is obligated to supply under the tenancy agreement.

The ruling

The Landlord shall pay the Tenant $1,080 as an abatement for substantially interfering with the Tenant's reasonable enjoyment, and $48 for the cost of filing the application. The total amount the Landlord owes the Tenant is $1,128, which shall be applied to the amount the Tenant owes the Landlord in a previous order.
