What happened

Landlord applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict Tenant due to non-payment of rent, substantial interference, serious impairment of safety, and willful damage. The Tenant did not attend the hearing.

The ruling

The tenancy is terminated effective July 21, 2024. The Tenant must pay the Landlord $15,481.67, which includes rent arrears and application filing fees. If the Tenant does not pay by July 21, 2024, the Landlord can file the order with the Sheriff for enforcement. The Landlord proved the Tenant seriously impaired safety by disconnecting the dryer vent, but failed to prove the Tenant willfully caused a sewer backup.
