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 tenant was in possession of the rental unit when the application was filed.
The ruling
The tenancy is terminated effective August 9, 2021. The Tenant must pay the Landlord $2,571.87, which includes rent arrears up to July 29, 2021 and the application fee, less the rent deposit and interest. The Tenant must also pay $88.77 per day for compensation for use of the unit from July 30, 2021 until the Tenant vacates. If the Tenant does not pay the full amount by August 9, 2021, the Landlord may file the order with the Sheriff to enforce the eviction.
