Filing Fee Rent arrears

Order

An application for suppression has been made in this case, and the Tribunal orders suppression of the Landlord name and identifying details.
Shelley Watts must pay [The landlord/s] $3,601.38 immediately, calculated as shown in table below:
The Bond Centre is to pay the bond of $2,100.00 ([Bond number suppressed]) to [The landlord/s] immediately.

Reasons

The landlord attended the hearing, conducted via teleconference. Two calls to the tenant went unanswered and to voicemail. After the first call went to voicemail, a brief message was left introducing myself and explaining the purpose of the call. The message concluded with the advice I would try a second time after waiting some minutes. I was satisfied adequate service had completed and I continued with the hearing after the second call also went unanswered.
The landlord had sought termination, rent arrears and outgoings. By today the tenancy had already ended and possession has returned to the landlord, meaning only monetary orders are now sought.
The landlord provided a rent summary that confirms the tenancy ended on 13 November 2025 and as at today the rent arrears outstanding is $5,405.00.
The landlord also provided three electricity invoices, totalling $268.38. These costs are for the tenant’s exclusive electricity consumption only and are accepted as due.
The two claims are accepted in full. Filing fee
The landlord has been totally successful in its application and therefore must have its filing fee returned. Suppression
Section 95A RTA states regarding suppression orders that the Tribunal must, on the application of a party that has wholly or substantially succeeded in proceedings, order that the party’s name or identifying particulars not be published, unless the Tribunal considers that publication is in the public interest or is justified because of the party’s conduct or any other circumstances of the case.
The landlord requested suppression in its application. As it has been wholly successful, suppression is ordered.
