What happened

Landlord applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict Tenant due to failure to pay rent. The application was filed after serving a valid N4 notice. The Tenant had vacated the rental unit in January 2022, prior to the hearing date.

The ruling

The Tribunal found the Tenant owed $7,480 in rent arrears plus the $186 filing fee, for a total of $7,666. The Landlord was ordered not to take any steps to enforce this order until the Tenant's T2 application is determined.
