What happened
Landlord applied for eviction and payment of rent arrears. Tenant requested adjournment, which was denied. Tenant is a single mother of four children, unemployed, and receiving social assistance. Landlord rejected Tenant's repayment plan of $250 per month.
The ruling
The tenancy is terminated unless the Tenant voids the order by paying the specified amount. The Tenant must move out by January 20, 2023, if the order is not voided. The Tenant is ordered to pay $14,315.25 plus $63.28 per day from November 9, 2022, until move-out. The eviction is delayed until January 20, 2023, to allow the Tenant time to seek financial assistance or alternative housing.
