What happened
The Landlord applied for an order to terminate the tenancy due to non-payment of rent. The Tenant did not dispute the arrears but requested relief from eviction, citing a newly secured high-paying job. The Tenant proposed a repayment plan or a delayed full payment, both of which the Landlord rejected. The Landlord sought a standard eviction order.
The ruling
The tenancy is terminated unless the Tenant pays the total arrears by a series of deadlines, with the final date being May 15, 2025. The eviction is postponed to allow the Tenant time to pay from their newly acquired job. If the Tenant fails to void the order, they must move out by May 15, 2025, and pay the Landlord $4,891.26 plus daily compensation from March 12, 2025, until they vacate.
