Filing Fee Rent arrears

Order

An application for suppression has been made in this case, and the Tribunal orders suppression of the landlords’ names and identifying details.
Joelene Andrew owes [The landlord/s] $4,262.29 (“the debt”), as calculated in the table below.
Joelene Andrew must pay the debt in full on or before Monday 10 November 2025. This payment is in addition to normal weekly rent of $780.00. The next payment of normal rent is due on Friday 31 October 2025 and payment must continue on or before every Friday.
Any payments made will first be credited to the normal weekly rent and then to the debt.
Failure to pay to pay the normal weekly rent and the debt as set out in order 3 within two working days of the due date(s) will result in termination of the tenancy with possession returning to the landlord and all monies still owing will be payable immediately. This order applies until the debt is paid in full.

Reasons

Ms Saunders attended the hearing for the landlords. The tenant was phoned on the number provided but the call went unanswered.
The landlords have applied for termination of the tenancy, rent arrears and refund of the bond.

Should a conditional termination order be made?

Where rent is at least 21 days in arrears on the date the application was filed, the Tribunal must make either a final or a conditional termination order: section 55(1)(a) and (1A) of the Residential Tenancies Act 1986.
Ms Saunders said that the landlords are prepared to give the tenant an opportunity to pay the arrears in full to avoid immediate termination of her tenancy. I therefore make a conditional termination order.
The conditional termination order will lapse if it is fully complied with. If the tenant breaches the order, the possession order may be enforced for 90 days from the first breach: section 64(4)(b) of the Residential Tenancies Act 1986.
The landlords applied, in their application, for a suppression order. As the landlords have been fully successful in their claims, they are entitled to an order pursuant to section 95A of the Residential Tenancies Act 1986. I therefore order that their names and identifying details be suppressed.
