The Landlord, represented by Reena Basser, A. the Tenant J. K. N., attended the hearing. Determinations: 1. The tenancy commenced on April 1, 2023.

The Landlord’s representative also submitted as evidence an order against the Tenants where in 2021 they owed the Landlord $21,134.20 when they vacated the rental unit to demonstrate that the Tenants are unlikely to comply with a repayment plan if one were ordered. 2. The Landlord served the Tenants with a valid Notice to End Tenancy Early for Nonpayment of Rent (N4 Notice). The Tenants did not void the notice by paying the amount of rent arrears owing by the termination date in the N4 Notice or before the date the application was filed. 3.

Interest on the rent deposit, in the amount of $36.89 is owing to the Tenants for the period from March 24, 2023 to September 26, 2023. 11. I have considered all of the disclosed circumstances in accordance with subsection 83(2) of the Residential Tenancies Act, 2006 (the 'Act'), A. find that it would be unfair to grant relief from eviction pursuant to subsection 83(1) of the Act.

The Tenants may also make a motion at the LTB to void this order under section 74(11) of the Act, if the Tenants have paid the full amount owing as ordered plus any additional rent that became due after October 16, 2023 but before the Court Enforcement Office (Sheriff) enforces the eviction. The Tenant may only make this motion once during the tenancy. 4. If the Tenants do not pay the amount required to void this order the Tenants must move out of the rental unit on or before October 16, 2023 5. If the Tenants do not void the order, the Tenants shall pay to the Landlord $19,941.41. This amount includes rent arrears owing up to the date of the hearing A. the cost of filing the application.
