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. Beatrice Egolf has been living in a long-term care home since October 2018, but remained on the lease. Matthew Egolf was added to the lease but both Beatrice and Matthew are responsible for the rent.

The ruling

The tenancy is terminated effective May 14, 2021. The Tenants must pay the Landlord $5,652.91, which includes rent arrears up to the order date, compensation for use of the unit, and the application filing fee, less the rent deposit and interest owed on the deposit. If the Tenants do not pay the full amount by May 14, 2021, they will owe additional daily compensation and the Landlord can file the order with the Sheriff to enforce the eviction.
