New Zealand Tenancy Tribunal Case 4534893 — Tenancy dispute

Tenantcheck Insights

Reasons

On 27 March 2023, the applicant filed their claim. On 02 June 2023, the matter was set down for an in person hearing at this Courthouse on 29 June 2023. All parties were sent a notice advising of the date, time, and venue for the hearing. The tenant did not appear, and the matter was dismissed.

On 10 July 2023, the tenant made an application for a rehearing, citing the unwellness of their child as the reason for their absence. On 17 July 2023, the application was dealt with on the papers, granted, and a direction made that the matter be set down for a rehearing.

In the application for rehearing the tenant advised of days and times when they would be unavailable. That availability was acknowledged, and on 19 July 2023 the matter was set down for an in person hearing on Tuesday 05 September 2023 at 9.30am.

On 21 August 2023, the tenant advised that they would be unable to attend in person on the scheduled date and requested to appear by telephone or video conference. The matter is unsuitable for remote hearing and the request was declined.

On the eve of the hearing the tenant submitted a medical certificate stating that they, and their child were unwell, preventing their appearance at the hearing. In response I asked the Registrar to advise both parties that the matter was adjourned.

In the adjournment order dated 05 September 2023, I indicated the case was to proceed on the next occasion, and that any further delays would be unfair on the landlord. I suggested that if the tenant was unable to appear in person on the next occasion, they were to appoint a suitably qualified representative to present their case – someone with knowledge of the tenancy and the claim. Although there was no completed tenancy agreement produced, I noted that there were two tenants / applicants.

On 08 September 2023, notices were sent to the parties advising of the date, time, and venue of this hearing. Again, the date was set considering the tenants availability. The landlord has attended. The landlord has confirmed that there are two tenants. Regrettably, once again, there has been no attendance by the tenant. The application is dismissed.

I order suppression of the landlord’s name and the address of the property, see section 95A of the Residential Tenancies Act 1986.
