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 ruling

The tenancy is terminated effective November 9, 2021. The tenant must pay the landlord $4,552.60, which represents the rent arrears and application filing costs, plus $28.50 per day for compensation for use of the unit starting October 30, 2021 until the tenant moves out. If the tenant does not pay the full amount owing by November 9, 2021, the tenant will start to owe interest at 2% annually on the outstanding balance. If the unit is not vacated by November 9, 2021, the landlord may file the order with the Court Enforcement Office (Sheriff) for enforcement. The tenant can void the order and continue the tenancy by paying $4,770.00 by October 31, 2021 or $5,637.00 by November 9, 2021.
