Reasons
- The hearing was conducted on Microsoft Teams.
- Jacqui Southwick attended the hearing for the landlords’ agent.
- The tenants did not attend.
- The landlord merely seeks payment over of the bond in part payment of the Tribunal’s earlier order dated 11 November 2024.
- The application is properly made and not opposed.
- The tenants must reimburse the landlord for the filing fee.
- The total amount the tenants owe the landlord is reduced accordingly. The Tribunal makes a new monetary order against the tenants. This order supplants the Tribunal’s earlier monetary order.
- Ms Southwick seeks non-publication of the landlords’ names and identifying details. That must be granted pursuant to s 95A(1) of the Residential Tenancies Act 1986 because the claim has been wholly successful and there are no countervailing factors.
