- The tenants do not dispute the arrears and say they will pay the arrears by instalments of about $300.00 per week over the next few weeks.
- An order is made for immediate payment so the landlord can simply enforce the debt in the District Court if the tenants do not pay the debt promptly as indicated.
- The tenants must reimburse the filing fee because the landlord has wholly succeeded in its application.
