What happened

Landlord applied for an order requiring Tenant to pay rent arrears. The Tenant did not attend the hearing. The Landlord's N4 Notice of Termination was found to be improperly served, preventing an eviction order. The application proceeded as an L9 application for rent arrears only.

The ruling

The Tenant is ordered to pay the Landlord $33,886.00 for rent arrears and application costs. No eviction order was issued due to improper service of the N4 Notice. Interest will be charged at 2.00% annually on any unpaid balance starting July 19, 2022.
