What happened
Landlord applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict Tenant due to failure to pay rent. The application was filed after serving a valid Notice of Termination effective February 15, 2021, which the tenant did not void by paying the arrears.
The ruling
The tenancy is terminated effective August 31, 2021. The Tenant must pay the Landlord $5,680.38, which includes rent arrears up to August 24, 2021 and the cost of filing the application, less the rent deposit and interest on the deposit. The Tenant must also pay $21.37 per day for compensation for use of the unit starting August 25, 2021 until the Tenant moves out. If the Tenant does not pay the full amount by August 31, 2021, the Tenant will start owing interest at 2% annually on the outstanding balance. If the unit is not vacated by August 31, 2021, the Landlord may file the order with the Sheriff for enforcement.
