Order

An application for suppression has been made in this case, and the Tribunal orders suppression of the landlords name and identifying details.
[The landlord/s] is granted possession of the premises at 16B Keith Street, Whanganui, Whanganui 4500 immediately.
Cheyenne Whiley to pay [The landlord/s] $958.00 from the bond, calculated as shown in table below.
The Bond Centre is to pay the bond of $958.00 ([Bond number suppressed]) to [The landlord/s] immediately. The remainder of the bond will remain with the bond center.

Reasons

Both parties attended the hearing.
The applicant states that the property comprises eight chalets with a shared driveway, and that the respondents’ behaviour has caused occupants of neighbouring properties to feel unsafe in their homes.
The applicant further states that, on 3 March, there was an incident of a domestic nature at the property involving yelling and screaming, during which the tenant kicked in a door after being prevented from entering the premises by a guest. The applicant states that, following this incident, a notice pursuant to section 56 was issued requiring the tenant to repair the damage to the door and to cease the behaviour.
The applicant states that this was followed by a further incident on 8 March, during which an alleged assault occurred in the shared driveway. The applicant’s evidence does not clearly identify the parties involved in that incident. The applicant states that a 14-day notice was issued following this event, and that police attended the property.
The applicant states that they attended the property on or about 16 March and found it to be vacant.
The evidence regarding the incidents of 3 March and 8 March lacks sufficient detail. While I accept that aspects of the applicant’s account are likely to be accurate, the evidence is not sufficiently particularised to enable me to make findings of fact in relation to those incidents.
However, I accept the applicant’s evidence that the respondent has abandoned the premises and that the property is now vacant. In those circumstances, it is appropriate to grant a possession order.
I also accept the applicant’s evidence in relation to rent arrears. The applicant has provided rent records showing the amount owing as at 27 March, and that amount is awarded.
Because [The applicant/s] has substantially succeeded with the claim I have awarded the filing fee and granted their application for suppression.
