Filing Fee Rent arrears

Order

An application for suppression has been made in this case, and the Tribunal orders suppression of the landlord’s name and identifying details and the tenancy address.
The tenancy of Dion Mark Schultze at [Tenancy address suppressed] is terminated, and possession is granted to [The landlord/s], immediately.
Dion Mark Schultze must pay [The landlord/s] $2,042.28 immediately, calculated as shown in the table below:

Reasons

[The landlord/s] attended the hearing by teleconference. The tenant did not call into the hearing as per the instructions in the Notice of Hearing, nor did he answer a call to his phone. As the tenant was served, the hearing proceeded in his absence.
The landlord has applied for termination of the tenancy, rent arrears and refund of the filing fee.
Rent was at least 21 days in arrears on the date the application was filed. The tenancy is terminated. See section 55(1)(a) Residential Tenancies Act 1986.
The landlord said she understood the tenant left the property around December 2025 and had not returned. The landlord said she had heard from a friend of the tenant’s who said she had been living at the property with her 2 children for at least a month at the time and wanted to take over the tenancy from the tenant. The landlord said the property is a one-bedroom home and she was not comfortable with somebody else living at the property other than the tenant and had not consented to this. Given the tenant is likely no longer living at the property, the termination of the tenancy is immediate.

How much rent is owing?

The landlord provided rent records which prove the amount owing to 18 February 2026, which is $1,950.00. Weekly rent is $450.00 so daily rent is $64.28. A further one day of rent @ $64.28 is payable for 19 February 2026 so the total rent owing by the tenant to the landlord is $2,014.28 up to 19 February 2026, which is the end of the tenancy. Suppression
The landlord requested name suppression. As the landlord has been successful with the claim, she is entitled to name suppression. Therefore, I order that the landlord’s name and identifying details and the tenancy address are not to be published. See section 95A(1) Residential Tenancies Act 1986.
