What happened

The Landlord applied for eviction after the Tenants breached a condition of a previous order (dated June 19, 2025) by failing to pay $400.00 towards arrears. An ex parte eviction order was issued on September 4, 2025. The Tenants filed a motion to set aside that order, citing financial constraints and a desire to preserve their long-term tenancy in affordable housing.

The ruling

The motion to set aside the eviction order dated September 4, 2025, is granted. The tenancy is preserved on the condition that the Tenants pay $6,018.00 in arrears through a payment plan of $400.00 monthly starting November 20, 2025, plus a final payment in January 2027. The Tenants must also pay regular monthly rent and set up direct bank withdrawals to the Landlord.
