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 to End Tenancy Early for Non-payment of Rent (N4 Notice), which the tenant did not void by paying the arrears. The tenant had vacated the rental unit prior to the hearing date.

The ruling

The Tenant is ordered to pay the Landlord $9,906, which includes $9,720 in rent arrears and $186 in application filing costs. The Tenant is given a 10-month repayment plan, with the first payment due on April 15, 2021 and the final payment due on January 15, 2022. If the Tenant fails to make any of the required payments, the Landlord may apply for an order terminating the tenancy and evicting the Tenant.
