What happened

Landlord applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict Tenant due to non-payment of rent. The Landlord served a valid N4 Notice, which the Tenant did not void by paying the arrears. The Tenant made significant payments after the application was filed, leaving only a small balance owing.

The ruling

The Tenant is ordered to pay $6.25 to the Landlord, which includes rent arrears up to July 31, 2022, and the cost of the application. If the Tenant does not pay by August 2, 2022, interest will start to accrue. The Board considered it not unfair to grant relief from eviction due to the Tenant's substantial payment, leaving only a small balance owing.
