Tenancy End Date
Jun 2024
Decision
The tenancy is terminated effective June 30, 2024. The Tenants must vacate the unit by that date. If they do not, the Landlord can file the order with the Sheriff to enforce the eviction. The Tenants owe the Landlord $7,630.18, which includes compensation for use of the unit and the Landlord owes the Tenants $2,142.42 for the rent deposit and interest.
Reason for Eviction Relief
The Tenants have 5 children and it would be financially devastating for them to move on short notice. The prejudice to the Tenants outweighs the prejudice to the Landlord.
Dispute
