The Landlord's application is dismissed. The Landlord failed to provide sufficient evidence to prove the Tenant wilfully caused damage to the elevator, and the circumstances weighed in favor of granting relief from eviction.
Landlord applied to terminate the tenancy and evict the Tenant due to allegations that the Tenant wilfully caused damage to the residential complex elevator, resulting in it being out of operation for over a month, and that this substantially interfered with the reasonable enjoyment of the other tenants. The Landlord also alleged the Tenant committed an illegal act and seriously impaired the safety of others.
Landlord argued the Tenant's letter proposing to pay for the repairs was an admission of guilt.
Landlord's superintendent testified about past confrontational interactions with the Tenant.
Tenant argued the Landlord's allegations were not proven on a balance of probabilities.
Tenant testified she was holding her keys, not glue, when entering the elevator on March 4, 2021.
