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 May 15, 2021. The Tenant must pay the Landlord $5,784.44, which represents the rent arrears and application filing costs, less the rent deposit and interest owed on the deposit. The Tenant must also pay $31.23 per day for use of the unit starting May 5, 2021 until the Tenant vacates. If the Tenant does not pay the full amount by May 15, 2021, the Landlord may file the order with the Sheriff to enforce the eviction.
