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 $6,392.16, which represents the amount of rent owing and compensation up to May 4, 2021, less the rent deposit and interest the Landlord owes on the rent deposit. The Tenant must also pay $40.66 per day for compensation for the use of the unit starting May 5, 2021 to the date the Tenant moves out, and $186.00 for the cost of filing the application. If the Tenant does not pay the full amount owing by May 15, 2021, the Tenant will start to owe interest at 2.00% annually on the balance outstanding. If the unit is not vacated by May 15, 2021, the Landlord may file the order with the Court Enforcement Office (Sheriff) for enforcement.
