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 remained in possession of the rental unit on the application date.

The ruling

The tenancy is terminated effective July 25, 2021. The Tenant must pay the Landlord $12,261.01, which represents the rent arrears and compensation up to July 14, 2021, less the rent deposit and interest owed on the deposit. The Tenant must also pay $38.65 per day for compensation for the use of the unit starting July 15, 2021 until the Tenant moves out. If the Tenant does not pay the full amount by July 25, 2021, the Tenant will start to owe interest at 2% annually on the outstanding balance. If the unit is not vacated by July 25, 2021, the Landlord may file the order with the Sheriff to enforce the eviction.
