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 tenants were still in possession of the rental unit at the time of the hearing.

The ruling

The tenancy is terminated effective February 28, 2021. The Tenants must pay the Landlord $656.98, which includes rent arrears up to February 8, 2021, less the rent deposit and interest owed on the deposit. The Tenants must also pay $47.10 per day for compensation for use of the unit from February 9, 2021 until they move out, and $186 for the application filing fee. If the Tenants do not pay the full amount by February 28, 2021, they will owe interest starting March 1, 2021. If the unit is not vacated by February 28, 2021, the Landlord can file the order with the Sheriff for enforcement.
