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 landlord's request to remove Amy Hunter from the application was denied as she was residing in the unit at the time the application was filed.

The ruling

The tenancy is terminated effective March 31, 2021. The Tenants must pay the Landlord $3,633.24, which represents the amount of rent owing and compensation up to January 20, 2021, plus $14.27 per day for compensation for the use of the unit starting January 21, 2021 to the date the Tenants move out of the unit, and $175.00 for the cost of filing the application. If the Tenants do not pay the full amount owing by March 31, 2021, they will start to owe interest at 2.00% annually on the balance outstanding. If the unit is not vacated by March 31, 2021, the Landlord may file the order with the Court Enforcement Office (Sheriff) so that the eviction may be enforced.
