What happened

The landlord applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict the tenant due to persistent late payment of rent. The landlord served a valid N8 notice on March 31, 2022, with a termination date of May 31, 2022, citing 13 months of late rent payments from March 2021 to March 2022. The tenant has been paying the rent within 2-3 days of the due date since the N8 notice was served, which the landlord considers on-time. However, the landlord has lost faith in the landlord-tenant relationship and wants to terminate the tenancy.

The ruling

The tenancy between the landlord and tenant will continue if the tenant pays the lawful monthly rent in full and on time for the period July 1, 2023 through June 1, 2024. If the tenant fails to comply with this condition, the landlord may apply to terminate the tenancy and evict the tenant. The tenant must also pay the $201 application filing fee to the landlord.
