An application for suppression has been made in this case, and the Tribunal orders suppression of the Landlords’ names and identifying details.

Gurpal Singh must pay [The landlord/s] $5,707.66 immediately, calculated as shown in table below.

This order incorporates the balance owing by the tenant under a Tribunal order made on 25 June 2025 which was confirmed in a rehearing order under application 5249726.

Reasons

Both parties attended the remote hearing.

The tenant had applied for an adjournment of this hearing the day prior to this hearing, so that a counterclaim could be filed. That adjournment application was dismissed by the Tribunal. The landlords’ application in this matter had been filed some time ago and the notice of hearing provided to the tenant by Tenancy Services had given the tenant sufficient time within which to file any counterclaim. The Residential Tenancies Act 1986 (“RTA”) requires the Tribunal to deal with matters expeditiously.

The landlord has applied to incorporate the balance of the moneys owing under an existing Tribunal order, rent arears and water rates owing for the period since the Tribunal’s order, compensation and reimbursement of the filing fee following the end of the tenancy.

How much is owed for rent ?

The Tribunal ordered the termination of the tenancy in its order dated 25 June 2025. The tenancy was to terminate under that order on 25 June 2025. The tenant applied for a rehearing of that order and a stay of proceedings. Those applications were dismissed.

Despite the order of the Tribunal, the tenant did not leave the premises on 25 June 2025. The landlord said that a bailiff was required to evict the tenant. The landlords seek a further order for rent for the period from 25 June 2025 to 14 July 2025, when the tenant was evicted. The landlord provided rent records and water rates records that prove that the tenant owes a further $551.43 for rent and $223.70 for water rates to the end of the tenancy.

The tenant did not remove all belongings upon being evicted. The landlord’s evidence was that appliances and nearly all the tenants belongings remained at the premises for a further 10 days. The landlord provided photos of the interior of the premises showing that it was full of belongings. The landlord seeks a further 10 days rent in compensation for that period where they were unable to gain appropriate access to the premises. The tenant is ordered to pay the equivalent of ten days rent to cover that period.

On 25 June 2025, the Tribunal made an order relating to this tenancy, for rent arrears to 24 June 2025, water rates to February 2025, reimbursement of the filing fee and release of the bond, leaving a balance owing by the tenant to the landlord of $4,161.68. That order has been confirmed by the Tribunal by order dated 3 July 2025. The previous order is incorporated into this order for enforcement purposes.

The tenant’s evidence did not dispute the facts provided by the landlord and mainly focused on matters previously dealt with by the Tribunal.

As [The landlord/s] has wholly succeeded with the claim I must order the tenant to reimburse the filing fee.

Both parties applied for name suppression. The landlords have been wholly successful in this hearing. Suppression of the landlords’ names and details is ordered. The tenant has not been wholly or substantially successful in this hearing. The tenant’s application for name suppression is dismissed.
