Dispute

The Tenants requested a review of an eviction order issued on May 22, 2025. They claimed they did not receive proper hearing details and that the N4 notice was invalid due to incorrect rent calculations. The Landlord countered that the arrears were accurate and the LTB records showed an amended notice was sent to the Tenants. The Tenants had already vacated the unit prior to the initial hearing.

Determinations

  • The Tenants failed to prove a serious error regarding the N4 notice amount.
  • The N4 notice amount of $1,290.00 was correct after removing a filing fee for a separate matter.
  • The Tenants had moved out on April 30, 2025, meaning the tenancy terminated by their departure regardless of notice validity.
  • An amended notice with full hearing details was sent to the Tenants via email and physical mail.
  • The Tenants failed to exercise reasonable diligence to attend the original hearing.
  • No serious error occurred in the original proceedings.
