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 was in possession of the rental unit when the application was filed.

The ruling

The tenancy is terminated effective April 3, 2021. The Tenant must pay the Landlord $12,594.75, which includes rent arrears up to March 23, 2021, compensation for use of the unit, and the application filing fee, less the rent deposit and interest owed on the deposit. If the Tenant does not pay the full amount by April 3, 2021, the Tenant will start owing interest and the Landlord can file the order for enforcement of the eviction.
