Billie Pohatu Brooking must pay Pearl Vea As Trustee For The Vea Investment Trust $3,518.92 immediately, calculated as shown in the table below: DescriptionLandlord Rent arrears to termination today$5,618.57 Water rates$633.35 Filing fee reimbursement$27.00 Total award$6,278.92 Bond$2,760.00 Total payable by Tenant to Landlord$3,518.92

Reasons

The landlord attended the hearing by telephone.
The tenant was telephoned three times but did not answer.
The landlord has applied for termination of the tenancy for breach of the tenant’s obligations, rent arrears, and water rates.

Should the tenancy be terminated?

Where a landlord applies to terminate for breach, and rent is at least 21 days in arrears on the hearing date, the Tribunal must terminate the tenancy. See sections 55 and 56(2) Residential Tenancies Act 1986.
Rent is at least 21 days in arrears at the hearing date. The tenancy is terminated.

How much does the tenant owe?

The landlord provided rent and water rates records which prove the amount owing at the end of the tenancy. Immediate termination
The landlord has been unable to obtain access to the property for an inspection and seeks to enforce the termination with immediate effect.
Section 138 of the District Court Act 2016 provides that normally an order cannot be enforced until 48 hours have expired, unless a “Judge grants leave”. However, section 106(2) of the RTA which relates to enforcement of possession orders, confirms that reference to a “Judge” in section 138(1) applies as if it were reference to a Tenancy Adjudicator.
This is a case where it is appropriate that leave be granted for an immediate enforcement of the possession order.
Because Pearl Vea As Trustee For The Vea Investment Trust has wholly succeeded with the claim I must reimburse the filing fee.
