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 at the time of the hearing.

The ruling

The tenancy is terminated effective July 26, 2021. The Tenant must pay the Landlord $4,701.93, which includes rent arrears up to July 15, 2021 and the application filing fee, less the rent deposit and interest owed on the deposit. The Tenant must also pay $16.44 per day for compensation for use of the unit from July 16, 2021 until the Tenant vacates. If the Tenant does not pay the full amount by July 26, 2021, the Tenant will owe interest and the Landlord can file the order with the Sheriff to enforce the eviction.
