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 had vacated the rental unit prior to the hearing date.

The ruling

The tenancy is terminated effective November 17, 2020. The Tenant must pay the Landlord $2,758.40, which includes rent arrears up to the move-out date and the cost of filing the application, less the rent deposit and interest on the deposit. The Tenant must also pay $41.10 per day for compensation for use of the unit from November 7, 2020 until the Tenant moves out. If the Tenant pays $5,196.00 on or before November 17, 2020, the eviction order will be void and the tenancy will continue.
