Landlord And B.L. Tenant P.J.R. (the 'Landlord') applied for an order requiring B.L. (the 'Tenant') to pay the rent that the Tenant owes. This application was heard by videoconference on February 27, 2023. Only the Landlord P.J.R. attended the hearing. As of 2:07p.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. As a result, the hearing proceeded with only the Landlord's evidence. Determinations: 1. The Tenant vacated the rental unit on October 11, 2022. The Tenant was in possession of the rental unit on the date the application was filed. 2. The Landlord amended their application to an L9 application solely for arrears of rent and the filing fee. The Landlord was seeking the arrears outstanding to October 11, 2022. 3. The Tenant did not pay the total rent they were required to pay for the period from July 1, 2022 to October 11, 2022. 4. The lawful rent is $1,750.00. It is due on the 1st day of each month. 5. The Tenant has not made any payments since the application was filed. 6. The tenancy ended on October 11, 2022 as a result of the Tenant moving out in accordance with a notice of termination, LTB order or agreement to terminate the tenancy. Therefore, the Tenant's obligation to pay rent also ended on that date.  7. The Landlord waived any daily compensation owing from October 1, 2022 to October 11, 2022, therefore the total rent arrears and daily compensation owing to October 11, 2022 are $5,250.00.
