What happened

Landlord applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict the Tenant due to the Tenant seriously impairing the safety of any person and wilfully causing undue damage to the premises. The rental unit was found to be in an unsanitary condition with significant food garbage, human waste, and mold, posing a public health risk.

The ruling

The tenancy is terminated, and the Tenant must vacate the unit by January 15, 2024. If the unit is not vacated by that date, the Landlord may file the order with the Sheriff for enforcement. The Tenant owes the Landlord $73,997.23, which includes the cost of repairs and the application fee, minus the rent deposit and interest. The Tenant must also pay the Landlord $28.27 per day for use of the unit until they move out.
