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 had vacated the rental unit prior to the hearing date.

The ruling

The tenancy is terminated effective November 17, 2020. The Tenant must pay the Landlord $347.88, which includes rent arrears up to the termination date, less the rent deposit and interest owed on the deposit. The Tenant must also pay $175 for the application filing fee and $31.13 per day in compensation starting November 7, 2020 until the unit is vacated. If the Tenant does not pay the full amount by November 17, 2020, the Landlord may file the order with the Sheriff to enforce the eviction.
