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 ruling

The tenancy is terminated effective October 29, 2021. The Tenant must pay the Landlord $1,841.61, which includes rent arrears up to October 18, 2021 and the cost of filing the application, less the $1,195.50 the Tenant paid after the application was filed. The Tenant must also pay $13.10 per day for compensation for use of the unit starting October 19, 2021 until the Tenant moves out. If the Tenant does not pay the full amount by October 29, 2021, the Tenant will owe interest starting October 30, 2021. If the unit is not vacated by October 29, 2021, the Landlord may file the order with the Sheriff for enforcement.
