What happened

The Landlord applied for an eviction order based on an N9 notice served by the Tenant. An ex-parte order was initially granted. The Tenant then filed a motion to set aside that order, claiming she only served the N9 notice because she believed she would be evicted in a different proceeding. However, evidence showed the Tenant had not paid rent since December 2024 and the notice was given freely.

The ruling

The Tenant's motion to set aside the eviction order is denied. The original order issued on June 11, 2025, remains in effect, and the stay is lifted immediately. The Tenant is required to vacate the unit based on her own N9 termination notice, especially given the eight-month history of non-payment of rent.
