Filing Fee Rent arrears

Order

An application for suppression has been made in this case and the Tribunal orders suppression of the landlord’s name and identifying details.
The tenancy of Chavez Kerehoma at 38 Perth Street, Levin, Levin 5510 is terminated, and possession is granted to [The landlord/s], at 11.59 pm Sunday 1 June 2025.
The Bond Centre is to pay the bond of $2,200.00 ([Bond number suppressed]) to [The landlord/s] immediately.
Chavez Kerehoma must pay [The landlord/s] $1,127.00 immediately, calculated as shown in the table below: DescriptionLandlord Rent arrears to 1 June 2025$3,300.00 Filing fee reimbursement$27.00 Total award$3,327.00 Bond$2,200.00 Total payable by Tenant to Landlord$1,127.00

Reasons

Both parties attended the hearing by telephone.
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. The tenancy is terminated. See section 55(1)(a) Residential Tenancies Act 1986 which provides that the Tribunal shall make an order terminating the tenancy if the Tribunal is satisfied that the rent was, at the date on which the application was filed at least 21 days in arrears.
The landlord provided rent records which prove the amount owing to 1 June 2025. The rent was 21 days in arrears on the day the landlord filed her application and was 21 days in arrears on the date of the hearing.
While the landlord’s statement records an amount owing of $3,400.00, the landlord confirmed that she had agreed with the tenant to waive the sum of $100.00 in compensation for damage to the tenant’s couch and that she was seeking arrears of $3,300.00.
The tenant requested that the Tribunal make a conditional termination order under section 55(1A) RTA. From the information provided by the landlord and the fact that the rent has been in arrears since the third week of the tenancy with the arrears steadily increasing to a figure in excess of the bond, the Tribunal cannot be satisfied that the tenant will not breach the agreement and fail to make payment of an instalment of the arrears or of the rent as it falls due.
Because [The applicant/s] has wholly succeeded with the claim I must reimburse the filing fee.
