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 February 22, 2022. The Tenant must pay the Landlord $18,643.13 in rent arrears and $186 in application fees, plus $33.83 per day in compensation starting February 12, 2022 until the Tenant vacates. If the Tenant does not pay the full amount by February 22, 2022, the Landlord may file the order with the Sheriff to enforce the eviction.
