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 not present at the hearing.

The ruling

The tenancy is terminated effective March 23, 2021. The tenant must pay the landlord $13,733.87 (less any payments made after November 20, 2020), which includes rent arrears and the application filing fee. The tenant must also pay $42.31 per day for compensation for use of the unit starting March 13, 2021 until the tenant moves out. If the tenant does not pay the full amount by March 23, 2021, the landlord may file the order with the Sheriff for enforcement.
