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 at the time of the hearing.

The ruling

The tenancy is terminated effective May 3, 2021. The Tenant must pay the Landlord $14,257.14, which includes rent arrears up to the termination date, compensation for use of the unit after the termination date, and the application filing fee, less the rent deposit. If the Tenant wishes to void the order and continue the tenancy, the Tenant must pay $15,795.81 by April 30, 2021 or $16,926.78 by May 3, 2021. If the Tenant does not make the required payment, the Landlord may file the order with the Court Enforcement Office (Sheriff) for enforcement.
