What happened

Landlord applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict Tenant due to failure to pay rent. The application was filed after serving a valid Notice to End Tenancy Early for Non-payment of Rent (N4 Notice), which the tenant did not void by paying the arrears. The previous tenant, Rushawn Ettienne, had vacated the rental unit in March or April 2022, but the Landlord removed them as a party to the application as they were not in possession of the unit when the application was filed.

The ruling

The tenancy is terminated effective February 18, 2023, the date the Tenant vacated the rental unit. The Tenant is ordered to pay $12,619.72 to the Landlord, which includes rent arrears up to the move-out date and the cost of filing the application, minus the rent deposit and interest on the deposit.
