What happened

Landlord applied for an order requiring Tenants to pay the rent owed. Tenants vacated the rental unit on October 9, 2022, without lawfully terminating the tenancy. The Landlord sought rent arrears from May 1, 2022, to October 31, 2022.

The ruling

The Tenants are ordered to pay the Landlord $5,991.40, which includes rent arrears from May 1, 2022, to October 31, 2022, and the cost of the application. If not paid by April 9, 2023, interest will start accruing at 5% annually on the outstanding balance.
