What happened
The Landlord applied for eviction and rent arrears based on non-payment of rent, illegal acts, and persistent late payment. By the time of the hearing, the Tenants had already vacated the rental unit. The primary dispute at the hearing concerned the exact date the Tenants moved out and the calculation of rent arrears, including potential offsets for utilities and the application of the last month's rent deposit.
The ruling
The tenancy was terminated effective November 1, 2024. The Tenants are ordered to pay the Landlord $3,163.61 by August 4, 2025. This amount accounts for total arrears up to the move-out date and the filing fee, minus the last month's rent deposit and accrued interest. The Landlord's additional claims for rent until January 2025 were rejected as the Tenants were found to have vacated earlier.
