What happened
The Landlord applied to evict the Tenant due to significant rent arrears. The Tenant, although properly served, joined the videoconference hearing but disconnected after an unsuccessful mediation attempt and did not return. The hearing proceeded based solely on the Landlord's evidence. A key preliminary issue was a minor error on the N4 notice, which the Board found was not fatal to the application. The Tenant was found to owe substantial rent and relief from eviction was denied.
The ruling
The tenancy is terminated unless the Tenant voids the order by paying either $8,656.00 by April 30, 2025, or $9,491.00 by May 4, 2025. If the order is not voided, the Tenant must move out by May 4, 2025, and pay the Landlord $8,040.60, plus daily compensation of $27.45 from April 9, 2025, until vacating. Relief from eviction was denied due to the significant arrears and the Tenant's failure to participate fully in the hearing.
