What happened

The Landlord applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict the Tenants due to persistent non-payment of rent. A valid N4 notice was served, but the Tenants failed to void it by paying the arrears. The Tenants did not attend the hearing, and while one payment was made after the application was filed, the arrears continued to grow significantly. The Landlord sought possession of the unit and the recovery of rent arrears and filing costs.

The ruling

The tenancy is terminated effective August 19, 2025. The Tenants are ordered to pay $2,099.77 to the Landlord for rent arrears and the application fee, after deducting the rent deposit and interest. The Tenants may void the eviction by paying $5,208.00 on or before August 19, 2025. If they fail to pay or move out, the Landlord can enforce the eviction through the Sheriff starting August 20, 2025.
