What happened

Landlord applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict Tenant due to non-payment of rent. The Tenant did not pay the rent arrears to void the N4 notice.

The ruling

The Landlord's request for eviction is denied due to the Landlord's serious breach of responsibilities by not addressing the Tenant's lack of heat issue. The Tenant is ordered to pay the rent arrears of $13,195 to the Landlord by January 26, 2024, or start owing interest.
