What happened

Landlord applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict Tenant due to non-payment of rent. The Tenant did not attend the hearing despite proper notice. The Landlord served a valid N4 Notice, which the Tenant did not void by paying arrears. The Tenant vacated the rental unit on April 26, 2022, prior to the hearing date.

The ruling

The tenancy was terminated effective April 26, 2022, the date the Tenant vacated the rental unit. The Tenant is ordered to pay $5,015.76 to the Landlord, which includes rent arrears up to the move-out date and the cost of filing the application, minus the rent deposit.
