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 not present at the hearing.

The ruling

The tenancy is terminated effective February 15, 2022. The Tenant must pay the Landlord $6,436.05, which includes rent arrears up to February 4, 2022, plus $186.00 for the application filing fee, and $24.66 per day for compensation for use of the unit starting February 5, 2022 until the Tenant moves out. If the Tenant does not pay the full amount by February 15, 2022, the Tenant will start owing interest at 2% annually on the outstanding balance. If the unit is not vacated by February 15, 2022, the Landlord may file the order with the Sheriff for enforcement.
