Order

The Tribunal orders suppression of the Tenant’s name and identifying details.
The landlord’s application is dismissed.

Reasons

Only the tenant attended the hearing. A Mandarin interpreter, Ms Yu, had been booked and was present to assist the landlord.
This hearing was scheduled to begin at 3.15pm. The landlord was not present. I delayed the start of the hearing until 3.22pm in case the landlord had been delayed. The tenant, her support person, and the interpreter then entered the hearing room and the case was called.
The landlord has claimed the sum of $172.50 from the tenant for a gasfitting certificate of compliance. The reason why this amount was sought from the tenant was not clear from the landlord’s application. The tenant denies liability for the landlord’s claim.
The applicant landlord 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 landlord’s application is therefore dismissed.
As there have been no findings made against the tenant I have made an order suppressing the tenant’s name and identifying details.
