What happened

Landlords applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict Tenants due to non-payment of rent. The Tenants vacated the rental unit on February 13, 2023, but only notified the Landlord on February 23, 2023. The Tenants failed to attend the rescheduled hearing on April 27, 2023, despite being granted an adjournment to prepare their evidence and submissions.

The ruling

The tenancy was terminated effective February 23, 2023. The Tenants are ordered to pay $25,088.94 to the Landlords, which includes rent arrears up to the move-out date and the cost of filing the application, minus the rent deposit and interest on the deposit. If the Tenants do not pay by June 3, 2023, they will start to owe interest at 6.00% annually on the outstanding balance.
