Filing Fee Rent arrears

Order

An application for suppression has been made in this case, and the Tribunal orders suppression of the Landlord name and identifying details.
Levona Davids and Reuben Pierrre Davids must pay [The landlord/s] $8,791.29 immediately, being rent arrears to 14 March 2025.
The Bond Centre is to pay the bond of $3,000.00 ([Bond number suppressed]) to [The landlord/s] immediately.

All remaining claims are dismissed.

Reasons

Both parties attended the hearing.
The first hearing was held on 29 September 2025. That hearing was adjourned to enable the parties to submit further evidence. The second hearing was held on 9 February 2026.
At the second hearing the property manager did not attend. A representative for the property management company attended but did not have any evidence to support the claims.
The landlord has applied for rent arrears, water rates and damage caused to the bathroom and kitchen. The landlord seeks refund of the bond.
The only evidence before the Tribunal to support the claims is a tenancy agreement, a rent summary, an invoice for repairs to the bathroom and kitchen, and a document recording water invoices.
No evidence was filed since the hearing held on 29 September 2025 and no further evidence was submitted at the hearing on 9 February 2026.
For the claim for repairs to the bathroom and kitchen there are no photographs or other evidence to show that the tenant is responsible for that damage. Due to a lack of evidence that claim is dismissed.
For the claim for water rates, the landlord has not filed any water invoices. Due to a lack of evidence that claim is dismissed.
The only claim where sufficient evidence has been filed is the rent arrears.
At the hearing the tenant thought that she only owed four weeks rent. The hearing was adjourned providing the tenant with an opportunity to produce evidence showing that she had paid more than the landlord claims. I note that the landlord filed this application eight months earlier than the second hearing. This also provided the tenant with ample opportunity to obtain evidence to support her position.
At the end of the adjournment on 9 February 2026 the tenant did not have any evidence in relation to the rent arrears. In the absence of evidence from the tenant, the landlord’s claim for rent arrears is awarded.
Because [The applicant/s] has substantially succeeded with the claim I have reimbursed the filing fee. For the same reason the landlord’s name is suppressed as sought.
