Landlord And E.D. Tenants Jonathan D. Mackenna D. Rebecca D. K.B. (the 'Landlord') applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict E.D., Jonathan D., Mackenna D. and Rebecca D. (the 'Tenants') because the Tenants did not pay the rent that the Tenants owe. This is the L1 Application. The Landlord also applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict the Tenants because the Landlord, in good faith, requires possession of the rental unit for their own personal use. This is the L2 Application. This application was heard by videoconference on April 6, 2023. The Landlord, and the Landlord’s Legal Representative, Timothy Mobberley, attended the hearing As of 9:56 a.m., the Tenants were 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: L1 Application 1. The Landlord served the Tenants with a valid Notice to End Tenancy Early for Non-payment of Rent (N4 Notice). The Tenants 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. 2. The Tenants were in possession of the rental unit on the date the application was filed. 3. The Tenants vacated the rental unit on August 15, 2022. Rent arrears are calculated up to the date the Tenant vacated the unit. 4. The lawful rent is $2,600.00. It was due on the 1st day of each month. Order Page: 1 of 3 File Number: LTB-L-043925-22 5. The Tenants have paid $1,300.00 to the Landlord since the application was filed. 6. The rent arrears owing to August 15, 2022 are $15,582.20. 7. The Landlord incurred costs of $186.00 for filing the application and is entitled to reimbursement of those costs. 2023 ONLTB 44318 (CanLII) 8. The Landlord collected a rent deposit of $2,600.00 from the Tenants and this deposit is still being held by the Landlord. The rent deposit is applied to the arrears of rent because the tenancy terminated. L2 Application 9. As the Tenants have vacated the rental unit, the L2 application is moot. 10. The Landlord requested consent of the Board to withdraw their application. 11. In accordance with subsection 200(4) of the Act, I consent to the withdrawal of the application. It is ordered that: L1 Application: 1. The tenancy between the Landlord and the Tenants is terminated as of August 15, 2022, the date the Tenant moved out of the rental unit 2. The Tenants shall pay to the Landlord $13,168.20. This amount includes rent arrears owing up to the date the Tenants moved out of the rental unit and the cost of filing the application. See Schedule 1 for the calculation of the amount owing. 3. If the Tenants do not pay the Landlord the full amount owing on or before July 2, 2023, the Tenants will start to owe interest. This will be simple interest calculated from July 3, 2023 at 6.00% annually on the balance outstanding. L2 Application: 4. The Landlord’s application is dismissed.
