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 August 30, 2021, the date the Tenant was ordered to vacate the rental unit. The Tenant is ordered to pay $2,572.00 to the Landlord, which includes rent arrears up to the move-out date and the cost of filing the application. If the Tenant does not pay the full amount by August 30, 2021, the Tenant will start to owe interest at 2% annually on the outstanding balance.
