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 vacated the rental unit prior to the hearing date.

The ruling

The tenancy was terminated effective February 13, 2022. The tenant is ordered to pay $4,025.50 to the landlord, which includes rent arrears up to February 2, 2022 and the cost of filing the application. If the tenant pays $5,084.00 on or before February 13, 2022, the eviction order will be void and the tenancy will continue.
