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 not vacated the rental unit by the hearing date.

The ruling

The tenancy is terminated effective September 13, 2021. The tenant must pay the landlord $6,585.44, which includes rent arrears up to the termination date and the cost of filing the application, minus the rent deposit and interest on the deposit. If the tenant does not pay the full amount by September 13, 2021, the tenant will start owing interest and the landlord can file the order with the Sheriff to enforce the eviction.
