Claims & awards
What this tenancy cost at tribunal — claim, category, amount, and party awarded, with reconciled net total.
No individual claim amounts were reconciled for this order. View the official Ministry of Justice PDF for full detail.
Order
- The Tribunal orders suppression of all names and identifying details.
- The return of the bond to the tenants has already occurred. Given that, the parties mutually agree that no further claims, either lodged or intended, will be pursued. That means the remaining tenant claims are withdrawn, and the landlord will not lodge a counterclaim.
Reasons
- Both parties attended the hearing. This was a continuation hearing.
- After discussion, the parties reached a settlement as recorded in this Order by Consent.
- Section 95A RTA states the Tribunal may, on the application of any party to proceedings or on its own initiative, having regard to the interests of the parties and to the public interest, order that all or part of the evidence given or the name or any identifying particulars of any witness or party not be published.
- Given the parties have reached a settlement I consider it appropriate to order suppression of the parties’ details. This reflects the fact that Tribunal Mediated Orders are not published. This order is akin to a mediated agreement.
