87B Triangle Road, Massey, Auckland 0614 Tenancy Tribunal Case 5238231 — Rent arrears

Tenantcheck Insights

Reasons

Both parties attended the hearing via remote teleconference.

The applicant is required to establish the claim to the civil law standard of proof, on the balance of probabilities.

The tenant lodged her application on 16 April 2025 in respect of her former tenancy address.

The tenancy started on 11 April 2023 and ended on or about 15 September 2024.

Unfortunately for the tenant there are no issues raised in her original application which the Tribunal can adjudicate.

The landlord filed a claim with his insurance company alleging a breach of tenant obligations at the end of the tenancy.

Instead of lodging an application with this Tribunal, the landlord filed an insurance claim in respect of the condition of the property at the end of the tenancy. The issue of rent arrears was also raised during the hearing.

The tenant provided photographic evidence with her application in support of her response to what the landlord has filed with the insurance company. Essentially, the tenant has used her application with this Tribunal to respond to the landlord’s claim with the insurance company.

The tenant confirmed during the hearing that the landlord’s insurance company is now pursuing her for compensation based on the insurance payout.

In the absence of a landlord application, this Tribunal has nothing to adjudicate in respect of the tenant’s application. Instead, she should respond directly to the insurance company with her objections. The matter is a civil dispute between the tenant and the landlord’s insurance company.

Accordingly, the tenant’s application is dismissed.

The Tribunal must, on the application of a party that has wholly or substantially succeeded in proceedings, order that the party’s name or identifying particulars not be published, unless the Tribunal considers that publication is in the public interest or is justified because of the party’s conduct or any other circumstances of the case – section 95A Residential Tenancies Act.

The tenant applied for non-publication of her name and identifying details. She has not substantially succeeded in the proceedings. I find that given the nature for her application it is not in the interests of justice to publish her name.

Accordingly, I allow name suppression in respect of the tenant’s request.
