What happened

The Landlord applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict the Tenant due to non-payment of rent. By the time of the hearing, the Tenant had already vacated the rental unit. The hearing proceeded in the absence of the Tenant to determine the amount of arrears owed up to the move-out date.

The ruling

The tenancy is terminated effective August 31, 2025, the date the Tenant moved out. The Tenant is ordered to pay the Landlord $13,017.29, representing rent arrears and the application filing fee. Interest will accrue at 4.00% annually if payment is not made by September 28, 2025.
