What happened

The Landlord applied for eviction based on non-payment of rent and substantial interference with reasonable enjoyment. The Tenant allegedly used the residential property as a scrap yard, storing a Mercedes Benz, truck parts, and other refuse without permission, and used the Landlord's garage power without authorization. Despite receiving multiple warnings and notices, the Tenant failed to rectify the situation. The Tenant also owed rent arrears at the time of the application, although a significant payment was made prior to the hearing.

The ruling

The tenancy is terminated effective June 17, 2025. The Tenant is ordered to move out and pay $111.02 to the Landlord, representing the remaining balance of rent arrears up to the hearing date and the application fee, after accounting for a $1,000.00 payment made after the application was filed. The Tenant must also pay $6.58 per day in compensation until they vacate the unit. If the Tenant fails to vacate or pay, the Landlord may enforce the eviction through the Sheriff starting June 18, 2025.
