⚖️ Decision summary

Tenancy is terminated unless the tenant voids the order by paying $11,600.00 on or before May 22, 2026.
If the order is not voided, tenant must vacate by May 22, 2026 and pay $6,250.84 (arrears less deposit and deposit interest).
Daily compensation of $95.34 accrues from May 6, 2026 until the tenant moves out.
Interest at 4.00% per annum on the outstanding balance begins May 23, 2026 if full payment is not made.
Landlords may file the order with the Court Enforcement Office (Sheriff) from May 23, 2026 to enforce eviction.
The eviction portion of the order expires November 23, 2026 if not filed with the Sheriff by that date.

⚠️ Dispute summary

Tenant failed to pay rent and did not void the N4 Notice by the termination date or before the application was filed.
Tenant was absent from the hearing without any adjournment request, so the matter proceeded on the landlords' evidence alone.
Landlords hold a $2,900.00 rent deposit; interest of $25.86 accrued from December 2, 2025 to May 5, 2026.
No repayment agreement was negotiated; the adjudicator found it would be unfair to grant relief from eviction.
