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 Notice of Termination, but the notice was found to be invalid as it did not properly identify the rental unit.

The ruling

The Landlord's application to terminate the tenancy and evict the Tenant was dismissed due to the invalid N4 notice. However, the Tenant was ordered to pay the Landlord $4,771.00, which includes $4,585.00 in rent arrears and $186.00 in application filing fees, by April 15, 2021. If the Tenant fails to pay the full amount by the due date, interest will accrue at 2% annually on the outstanding balance.
