Landlord

D.P., M.D.

Tenant

C.D.

What happened

Landlords applied for an order requiring Tenant to pay rent owed. The N4 Notice was found defective due to inaccurate rental periods, so Landlords proceeded with an application for rent arrears only. Tenant was still in possession of the rental unit at the time of the hearing and had not paid the full rent required for the period from January 20, 2022 to February 19, 2023.

The ruling

The Tenant is ordered to pay the Landlords $24,586.00, which includes rent arrears up to February 19, 2023, and the cost of the application. If the Tenant does not pay the full amount by March 25, 2023, they will start to owe interest at 5.00% annually on the outstanding balance from March 26, 2023.
