What happened

The Landlord applied for eviction and rent arrears after the Tenant failed to pay rent for approximately six months. The Tenant claimed he withheld rent due to alleged threats of illegal lockouts by the Landlord which caused him anxiety and unemployment, though he recently resumed work with a high income.

The ruling

The tenancy is terminated effective October 8, 2025, unless the Tenant pays $18,386.00 by that date to void the order. If the Tenant does not pay and fails to move out, the Landlord may enforce the eviction through the Sheriff on or after October 9, 2025. The Tenant is ordered to pay $12,067.29 representing arrears up to the hearing date plus filing fees, adjusted for the rent deposit and interest.
