What happened

Landlord applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict Tenant due to failure to pay rent. The Tenant contested the rent increase, claiming she did not receive proper notice, but the Landlord provided evidence that the notice was served. The Tenant vacated the unit on August 28, 2020.

The ruling

The tenancy was terminated effective August 28, 2020, the date the Tenant vacated the rental unit. The Tenant is ordered to pay $37.05 to the Landlord, which includes rent arrears up to the move-out date, less the rent deposit and interest owed on the deposit. The Tenant is also ordered to pay $175.00 for the cost of filing the application.
