What happened

Landlord applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict Tenant due to failure to pay rent. The Tenant had lost employment due to COVID-19 pandemic, leading to rent arrears. The Tenant wanted to preserve the tenancy and proposed a 6-month payment plan, which the Landlord did not initially accept.

The ruling

The Landlord's application for eviction is denied on the condition that the Tenant pays the outstanding $8,258.00 in 6 monthly installments, and continues to pay the monthly rent. If the Tenant fails to make the required payments, the Landlord may apply for an order terminating the tenancy and evicting the Tenant.
