Filing Fee Rent arrears

Order

The tenancy of Rebecca Mitchell at [Tenancy address suppressed] is terminated, and possession is granted to [The landlord/s], at 11.59 am on Wednesday 31 January 2024.
Rebecca Mitchell must pay [The landlord/s] $5,869.56 immediately, calculated as shown in the table below:

Reasons

Both parties attended this remote video hearing.
The landlord has applied for termination of the tenancy and rent arrears.
Rent was at least 21 days in arrears on the date the application was filed. The tenancy is terminated. See section 55(1)(a) Residential Tenancies Act 1986.
The landlord provided rent records which prove the amount owing at the end of the tenancy will be $5,849.12.
As [The Landlord/s] has wholly succeeded with the claim I must order the tenant to reimburse the filing fee.
Both parties have applied for name suppression. The landlord has been wholly successful in this matter and suppression of the landlord name and details is ordered.
Under Section 95A(1) RTA a suppression order must be granted if on the application of a party that has wholly or substantially succeeded in proceedings.
I have considered if I should grant a name suppression order for the tenant having regard to the interests of the parties and public interest under Section 95A(4) RTA.
I am mindful that open justice is a fundamental principle in our legal system. The issue here I need to consider is whether suppressing the tenants’ name and identifying details outweighs the interest of the open justice reporting principle.
In my view, the application for name suppression and identifying details by the tenant ought to be declined for the following reasons; a. It is common for parties appearing before the Tribunal to seek suppression orders. But that is not of itself a sufficient reason to make the order. b. The disputes before me are not unusual or other than the ordinary business of the Tribunal. c. The open justice principle requires the outcome of adjudication to be available to the public; and d. Weighing up the interests of the landlord and the public interest, the public interest outweighs the tenant’s interests.
Accordingly, no order is made for suppression of the tenant’s name and identifying details.
