The application for termination and a possession order was originally made on the basis that the tenant had given notice to terminate the tenancy and not vacated.

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. Rent arrears
The landlord provided rent records which prove the amount owing as at 18 July 2025 and I have made an order for rent arrears and rent to the termination date. Bond
The bond is to be paid to the landlord immediately to offset the rent arrears. Filing fee
Because the landlord has wholly succeeded with the claim I must reimburse the filing fee. Suppression
