Order
- The application for rehearing is dismissed.
Reasons
- The landlord attended the hearing by video. The tenant did not attend the hearing.
- Three attempts were made to join the tenant to the hearing by telephone by calling both phone numbers on file. One call did not connect and two calls went to voicemail.
- The notice sent to the parties on 4 December 2025 advising of the hearing day and time contains the link for the video hearing as well as phone numbers for parties to call the hearing. This places the onus on the parties to attend the hearing rather than rely on an Adjudicator to telephone the parties if they do not join by video.
- The applicant did not attend the hearing at the scheduled time, request an adjournment, or notify the Tribunal the matter has settled. See sections 78(1)(i) and 92(1) Residential Tenancies Act 1986.
- The application for rehearing is dismissed. The order made by the Tribunal on 11 November 2025 stands and may be enforced.
- While the tenant sought suppression, she has not attended either the hearing on 11 November 2025 or the hearing allocated for today (28 January 2026) to provide evidence to support her application. Without any evidence I am unable to order suppression as the tenant was not the successful party and there is no evidence to support suppression 1 .
