The tribunal found the Bhana landlords grossly negligent, ordering them to pay $5,800 in exemplary damages for neglecting water damage, mold, broken fixtures, and false claims about the property’s safety. They also received a six-year restraining order, with potential criminal penalties for future violations. The case underscores a pattern of poor management and the emotional toll on tenants, while the adjudicator criticized the landlord’s disorganization and wasted court time — ultimately declaring the property unfit for habitation.
