What happened
The Landlord applied to terminate the tenancy and evict the Tenant due to the Tenant's conduct, including throwing a rock through the window of another unit, breaking into the unit and causing severe damage, and a shooting incident from the Tenant's rental unit that penetrated the wall of another unit. The Landlord alleged the Tenant's conduct substantially interfered with the reasonable enjoyment and safety of the residential complex.
The ruling
The Landlord's application is granted. The tenancy is terminated effective April 7, 2024, and the Tenant must vacate the unit by that date. If the unit is not vacated, the Landlord may file the order with the Sheriff for enforcement. The Tenant is ordered to pay the Landlord $16,825.70 for the damage to unit 37 and $186 for the application filing fee. If the Tenant does not pay the full amount by April 7, 2024, they will owe interest at 7% annually on the outstanding balance.
