What happened
The landlord applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict the tenants because the tenants entered into an agreement to terminate the tenancy. The tenants filed a motion to set aside the order because one of the tenants, Sajida Kharal, had surgery and her recovery was slower than expected, and they requested more time to vacate the rental unit.
The ruling
The Board set aside the previous order and dismissed the landlord's application. The N11 agreement to terminate the tenancy was found to be invalid as not all tenants signed it and there was no written authorization from one of the tenants for the others to act on her behalf.
