What happened

Landlord applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict Tenants due to rent arrears and persistent late payment of rent. The application was heard by way of video conference, with the Landlord's representative in attendance but the Tenants absent.

The ruling

The L1 application for eviction due to rent arrears was discontinued as the Tenants paid the arrears. However, the Tenants were found to be persistently late in paying rent, so the Landlord's L2 application was granted, subject to the Tenants making timely rent payments for the next 12 months. The Tenants were ordered to pay the Landlord's application filing fee of $201.
