What happened

Landlord applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict Tenants 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 tenants did not void by paying the arrears. The tenants were still in possession of the rental unit on the hearing date.

The ruling

The tenancy is terminated unless the tenants pay $15,486 by June 23, 2023 to void the order. If the tenants do not pay, they must vacate the unit by June 23, 2023 and pay the landlord $11,293.17 plus daily compensation of $60.82 from May 24, 2023 until they move out.
