What happened

The Landlord applied to terminate the tenancy because the Tenant substantially interfered with the Landlord's and other tenants' reasonable enjoyment and lawful rights. Specifically, the Tenant repeatedly denied entry for pest control inspections and treatments for an ant infestation. Inspections revealed the unit was in an extremely unsanitary state, filled with thousands of soda cans and garbage piled up to four feet high, creating a health and fire hazard and acting as a breeding ground for pests that spread to other units.

The ruling

The tenancy is terminated effective May 31, 2025. The Tenant is ordered to vacate the unit by this date and pay the Landlord $186.00 for the application filing fee. If the Tenant fails to vacate, the Landlord may enforce the eviction through the Sheriff starting June 1, 2025.
