What happened

Landlord applied for an order requiring Tenant to pay the rent owed. The Tenant had vacated the rental unit on March 21, 2022, prior to the hearing date. The Tenant did not attend the hearing despite being properly served with notice.

The ruling

The tenancy was terminated effective March 21, 2022. The Tenant is ordered to pay $2,586.00 to the Landlord, which includes rent arrears up to March 21, 2022, and the cost of the application. If the Tenant does not pay the full amount by September 27, 2022, interest will start to accrue at 3.00% annually on the outstanding balance.
