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 February 8, 2022. The tenant must pay the landlord $4,615.16 in rent arrears and compensation, plus $14.20 per day starting January 29, 2022 until the tenant moves out. The tenant must also pay the $186 application fee. If the tenant does not pay the full amount by February 8, 2022, the tenant will owe interest and the landlord can file the order for enforcement of the eviction.
