What happened

The tenants applied for an order determining that the landlord has collected or retained money illegally. The tenants claimed they paid a $600 cleaning deposit to the landlord, which the landlord did not return after they moved out.

The ruling

The Landlord is ordered to pay the Tenants $600 for the cleaning deposit, plus $53 for the cost of filing the application. If the Tenants do not pay the Landlord the full amount by June 2, 2023, they will start to owe 6% annual interest on the outstanding balance.
