Order

The tenancy of [The tenant/s] at Unit/Flat 202, 155 Beaumont Street, Auckland Central, Auckland 1010 is terminated, and possession is granted to Barfoot & Thompson Limited - Ponsonby As Agent For Yi Lao (Evan), at 11.59 am on Friday 9 February 2024.
The Bond Centre is to pay the bond of $2,380.00 (6443983-001) to Barfoot & Thompson Limited - Ponsonby As Agent For Yi Lao (Evan) immediately.
[The tenant/s] must pay Barfoot & Thompson Limited - Ponsonby As Agent For Yi Lao (Evan) $4,198.22 immediately, calculated as shown in the table below:

Reasons

Both parties attended this video hearing.
The landlord has applied for termination of the tenancy, rent arrears and refund of the bond.
Rent was at least 21 days in arrears on the date the application was filed. Section 55(1)(a) Residential Tenancies Act 1986 provides that in those circumstances the Tribunal shall terminate the tenancy. The tenancy is terminated.
The landlord provided rent records which prove the amount owing at the end of the tenancy will be $6,460.00.
The landlord provided water rates records with a reading through to 30 September 2022 which prove an amount owing of $97.78.
As Barfoot & Thompson Limited - Ponsonby As Agent For Yi Lao (Evan) has wholly succeeded with the claim I must order the tenant to reimburse the filing fee.
The tenant has applied for name suppression.
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 tenant’s name and identifying details outweigh the interest of the open justice reporting principle.
In my view, the application for name suppression and identifying details 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.
