What happened

Landlord applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict Tenant due to non-payment of rent. The Tenant did not attend the hearing. The Landlord served a valid N4 Notice, which the Tenant did not void by paying the arrears. The Tenant was still in possession of the rental unit at the time of the hearing.

The ruling

The tenancy is terminated unless the Tenant voids the order by paying the specified amounts. The Tenant must move out by April 21, 2023, if payment is not made. The Landlord is authorized to deduct $51.03 per day for compensation from March 16, 2023, until the Tenant moves out. The eviction can be enforced by the Sheriff starting April 22, 2023, if the unit is not vacated.
