Order

The tenancy of Amrit Singh at [Tenancy address suppressed] is terminated, and possession is granted to [The landlord/s], immediately today.
An order is made under section 138(1)(b) of the District Courts Act 2016. The possession order is immediately enforceable.
Amrit Singh must pay [The landlord/s] $157.23 immediately, as calculated below:
The Bond Centre is to pay the bond of $312.00 ([Bond number suppressed]) to [The landlord/s] immediately.

Reasons

The landlord was represented. The tenant did not attend the hearing.
The landlord has applied for termination of the tenancy for breach of the tenant’s obligations.

Should the tenancy be terminated?

The Tribunal may terminate a tenancy for breach where, due to the nature or extent of the breach, it would be inequitable to refuse to terminate. See section 56(1) Residential Tenancies Act 1986.
Where the breach is not capable of remedy, the landlord is not expressly required to serve a 14-day breach notice on the tenant. A breach is not capable to remedy where the thing done, or its effect, cannot be undone.
However, unless the breach is serious, the Tribunal usually requires the landlord to have warned the tenant about the likely consequences of continued breach before it will exercise its discretion to terminate.
The tenant has breached their obligations by throwing bottles from the 4 th floor balcony of the premises onto [street], one of the busiest streets in the city.
The tenant committed the same breach on 4 separate occasions on 4 December 2023.
When the landlord’s staff members attempted to speak to him about it, the tenant said he had a gun. He became abusive towards the landlord’s staff members.
The police were called. He was arrested, taken into custody, and then released on bail with conditions.
The breach is not capable of remedy because the action of throwing bottles onto a street cannot be remedied.
It would be inequitable to refuse to terminate the tenancy because of the significant risk to public safety. But for chance, a passing pedestrian or motorist could have been injured or worse.
I have made the possession order with immediate effect, notwithstanding the time of year. The risk to public safety is such that the tenancy must end immediately. Section 138(1)(b) of the District Courts Act 2016 provides that the enforcement delay period may be waived in situations such as this.
The landlord has applied for rent arrears and has provided rent records which prove the amount of rent owing.
The landlord has applied for water rates and electricity charges and has provided an invoice which proves the amount owing.
As the application is successful, the tenant must pay the landlord’s Tribunal filing fee.
The landlord sought, and is entitled to, name suppression on the successful application – see section 95A of the Residential Tenancies Act 1986.
