Landlord And N.A. Tenant Centurion Property Associates Inc. (the 'Landlord') applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict N.A. (the 'Tenant') because the Tenant did not pay the rent that the Tenant owes. This application was heard by videoconference on January 17, 2023. Only the Landlord’s Legal Representative Daniel Abraham attended the hearing. As of 1:58 p.m., the Tenant was not present or represented at the hearing although properly served with notice of this hearing by the LTB. There was no record of a request to adjourn the hearing. Since the Tenant did not attend and the Landlord was prepared to proceed, the matter proceeded by way of an uncontested hearing pursuant to section 7 of the Statutory Powers Procedure Act, R.S.O. 1990. Determinations: 1. At the hearing the Landlord’s Legal Representative relied on oral submissions and referred to documents to support their application. 2. The Landlord served the Tenant with a valid Notice to End Tenancy Early for Non-payment of Rent (N4 Notice). The Tenant did not void the notice by paying the amount of rent arrears owing by the termination date in the N4 Notice or before the date the application was filed. 3. The Tenant was in possession of the rental unit on the date the application was filed. 4. The Tenant vacated the rental unit on November 16, 2022.

The Landlord incurred costs of $186.00 for filing the application and is entitled to reimbursement of those costs. 9.
