What happened
Landlord applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict Tenant due to failure to pay rent. The application was filed after serving a valid Notice to End Tenancy Early for Non-payment of Rent (N4 Notice), which the tenant did not void by paying the arrears. The tenant was still in possession of the rental unit on the hearing date.
The ruling
The Landlord's application is not refused under s. 83(3)(a) as the Tenant did not establish the Landlord was in serious breach of their obligations under the Act or the tenancy agreement. The Tenant may void the order and continue the tenancy by paying $9,371.68 on or before April 26, 2024. If the Tenant does not void the order, the tenancy is terminated and the Tenant must pay $8,351.08 to the Landlord.
