What happened

Landlords applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict Tenants due to failure to pay rent. The Tenants owed $17,000 in arrears, causing financial distress to the Landlords. The Tenants requested an adjournment, which was denied. The Landlords served a valid N4 Notice, which the Tenants did not void by paying the arrears.

The ruling

The tenancy is terminated unless the Tenants void the order by paying the specified amounts. If not voided, Tenants must vacate by April 2, 2023, and pay $13,671.67 plus $73.97 per day from February 15, 2023, until they move out. The Landlords may file for eviction enforcement starting April 3, 2023, if the unit is not vacated.
