<b>The (jurisdictional) DRC refuses to make any record or give a certificate if the parties reach an agreement. </b> So there is no record of doing the ERPP except from the Landlord or attorney. What are other jurisdictions encountering for an "official record"
that reiterates the rental amount and due date of a payment, and maybe the fact that the parties reached this agreement after the Tenant had been served with a 14day notice and ERPP notification? <o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">
The issue of repeat offenders – the Tenant is served with a 14 day notice and ERPP – Tenant agrees to may the statutory 1/3 rd payment along with the regular rental payment. Then Tenant defaults and does not make the payment – 5160 says you can file a UD but
you must comply with ERPP provisions of 5160 – so you serve another 14 day notice along with ERPP and Tenant agrees yet again to pay the rent along with 1/3 payment (this is the 2<sup>nd</sup><span class="gmail-apple-converted-space"> </span>time). Due to
the success of the mediation (tenant agreeing to pay the 1/3) no certificate is provided. Tenant defaults on payment yet again –
<b>now, how many times do you have to keep going through this process and Tenant failing to comply with the terms of the repayment, before you can actually file a UD</b>?<o:p></o:p></li></ol>
