Order
- An application for suppression has been made in this case, and the Tribunal orders suppression of the landlord’s name and identifying details.
- The application is dismissed.
Reasons
- Ms [M] and Ms [W] attended the hearing on behalf of the landlord.
- The tenant did not attend and did not answer a call made during the hearing to the number provided for her.
- The applicant applied for termination of the tenancy.
- Prior to the hearing the tenancy had already come to an end and no order is required.
- The landlord wished to make claims for compensation for costs arising following the end of the tenancy and had filed some documents in support of these claims.
- The Tribunal could not be sure that the tenant had notice of these additional claims and did not have all evidence that the landlord thought had been provided so it is neither appropriate nor possible to determine these issues or to make an order against the bond.
- The landlord will make a fresh application for compensation, refund of the bond and refund of the application fee (and any other required claims) providing all evidence required for such claims so that the tenant has appropriate notice should they wish to be heard at the next hearing.
- The landlord applied for suppression in its application and, although the claim has not been successful, the tenant has agreed to end the tenancy on the basis of the same events, so suppression is ordered as above.
