Order

An application for suppression has been made in this case, and the Tribunal orders suppression of the Landlord name and identifying details.
Adarsh Pushpan, Amrutha Adarsh and Bhavya Agarwal must pay [The landlord/s] $43.73 immediately, being the balance of water rates.
The Bond Centre is to pay the bond of $3,240.00 ([Bond number suppressed]) to [The landlord/s] immediately.
The tenant’s application is dismissed.

Reasons

The landlord attended the hearing. The tenant did not attend the hearing.
On the morning of the hearing one of the tenants had emailed the Tribunal advising that he was unwell. No medical evidence was provided in support. It was directed that the other tenants should attend the hearing and the adjournment was not granted.
I note the order of the Tribunal dated 22 November 2024 where the Adjudicator directed that no further adjournment would be granted and that: “If one or more of the tenants is too unwell to attend the next hearing, the hearing will proceed in the tenant’s absence. In these circumstances, the tenant may seek permission from the Tribunal to attend by telephone, send a representative in their place or file written submissions.”
None of the three tenants attended the hearing or requested to attend by telephone or to be represented. No written submissions were filed.
The hearing proceeded in the tenant’s absence given that the adjournment sought was not granted.
The landlord applied for water rates. The landlord produced water rates invoices proving the amount owed.
At the hearing the landlord sought other claims, but these were not added to the application that was filed and therefore the tenants did not have notice of the further claims. The landlord will need to file another application if other claims are sought.
Given that the tenants failed to attend the hearing and the adjournment requested was not granted, the tenant’s application is dismissed.
Because Adarsh Pushpan, Amrutha Adarsh, Bhavya Agarwal has wholly succeeded with the claim I must reimburse the filing fee. For the same reason the landlord’s name is suppressed.
