What happened

Landlord applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict Tenants 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 tenants did not void by paying the arrears.

The ruling

The tenancy is terminated effective May 17, 2021. The Tenants must pay the Landlord $8,340.01, which includes rent arrears up to May 6, 2021 and the cost of filing the application, less the rent deposit and interest on the deposit. The Tenants must also pay $50.63 per day for compensation for the use of the unit starting May 7, 2021 until they move out. If the Tenants do not pay the full amount by May 17, 2021, they will start owing interest at 2% annually on the outstanding balance. If the unit is not vacated by May 17, 2021, the Landlord may file the order with the Court Enforcement Office (Sheriff) for enforcement. The Tenants can void the eviction order by paying $11,356.00 on or before May 17, 2021.
