What happened

Landlord applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict Tenant due to substantial interference with the reasonable enjoyment or lawful right, privilege or interest of the Landlord or another tenant. The Landlord also claimed compensation for each day the Tenant remained in the unit after the termination date.

The ruling

The Tenant shall pay to the Landlord $2,788.43, which represents the reasonable out-of-pocket expenses the Landlord has incurred or will incur as a result of the unpaid utility costs. The Tenant shall also pay to the Landlord $186.00 for the cost of filing the application. The total amount the Tenant owes the Landlord is $2,974.43. If the Tenant does not pay the Landlord the full amount owing on or before October 15, 2022, the Tenant will start to owe interest at 4.00% annually on the balance outstanding.
