J.M., J.M.

What happened

The Tenants requested a review of a prior eviction order for non-payment of rent, which was issued after they failed to attend the original hearing. They argued they were not reasonably able to participate. The Board denied the review, finding their reasons for non-attendance were insufficient and demonstrated a lack of diligence.

The ruling

The Tenants' request to review a previous eviction order is denied as the Board found their reasons for missing the original hearing were insufficient. The original order for eviction is confirmed. The stay on the eviction is lifted effective April 30, 2025, to allow the Tenants, who have five school-aged children, time to find alternative housing.
