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 at the time of the hearing.

The ruling

The tenancy is terminated unless the tenants pay $41,466 by December 31, 2023 or $43,618.50 by January 10, 2024 to void the order. If the tenants do not pay, they must vacate the unit by January 10, 2024 and pay the landlord $35,000, which is the maximum jurisdictional amount.
