What happened

The Landlord applied for termination of tenancy and eviction based on two grounds: non-payment of rent (L1 application) and an agreement to terminate the tenancy (L3 application). The Landlord discovered that the Tenants had provided fraudulent documents to secure the rental unit, leading the parties to sign an N11 agreement. Despite being present in the morning, the Tenants failed to attend the afternoon portion of the hearing.

The ruling

The tenancy is terminated effective September 22, 2025, pursuant to the L3 application (agreement to terminate). The Tenants are ordered to pay the Landlord $2,579.44, representing rent arrears and the filing fee minus the rent deposit. Additionally, the Tenants must pay daily compensation of $85.48 until they vacate the unit.
