What happened
Landlord applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict Tenant due to non-payment of rent and for interfering with others, damage or overcrowding. The Landlord served valid N4 and N5 notices, but the Tenant did not void the notices. The Tenant had substantial rent arrears and failed to comply with an interim order to pay rent and provide evidence.
The ruling
The tenancy is terminated. The Tenant must pay the Landlord $35,186 by August 24, 2024, which includes rent arrears, water/wastewater charges, and the application filing fee, minus the rent deposit and interest. If the Tenant does not pay by the due date, the Landlord may file the order with the Sheriff for enforcement. The Tenant is also ordered to pay daily compensation of $139.73 for each day of occupation after the hearing date.
