What happened

Landlord applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict Tenants 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 tenants did not void by paying the arrears. The tenants were not present or represented at the hearing.

The ruling

The tenancy is terminated effective July 2, 2021. The tenants must pay the landlord $6,379.14, which includes rent arrears up to the termination date, compensation for use of the unit, and the application filing fee, less the rent deposit and interest owed on the deposit. If the full amount is not paid by July 2, 2021, the tenants will owe interest and the landlord can file the order for enforcement of the eviction.
