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.
The tenancy of [The tenant/s] and [The tenant/s] at [Tenancy address suppressed] is terminated, and possession is granted to [The landlord/s], at 12 midday on Monday 20 July 2026.
The Bond Centre is to pay the bond of $2,120.00 ([Bond number suppressed]) to [The landlord/s] immediately.
[The tenant/s] and [The tenant/s] must pay [The landlord/s] $406.57 immediately, calculated as shown in the table below:
The hearing of the rent arrears claim is adjourned.
A further 60 should be allowed for the next hearing of this matter, scheduled before me at this court on the next available date.

Reasons

Both parties attended the hearing.
The landlord has applied to end the tenancy because of rent arrears. I find the tenants owe at least 21 days in rent and the tenancy should end. See section 55 Residential Tenancies Act 1986 (RTA).
I could not determine the amount of rent owed because the rent summary was hard to follow, started on the wrong date, and included filing fees. I have made an order for a small amount of rent and the full amount of rent owed will be decided at the next hearing. The bond will be refunded to the landlord.
The landlord is required to provide a rent summary in this format and this must be emailed to the Remote Tenancy and to the tenants by 20 July 2026: https://www.tenancy.govt.nz/assets/forms-templates/rent-summary-sheet.xlsx
The landlord is also required to provide the numbers for the previous Tribunal orders. This information can be emailed to the Remote Tenancy as well.
The parties will be notified in writing by Tenancy Services of the date and time of the next hearing.
Because the landlord has substantially succeeded with the claim I have reimbursed the filing fee.
There are applications for suppression. Section 95A RTA provides that the Tribunal may, on the application of any party to proceedings or on its own initiative, order that the name of a party not be published, having regard to the interests of the parties and to the public interest.
The landlord’s name is suppressed because he is the most successful party. The tenants’ names will be published because there is public interest when tenants owe money at the end of the tenancy.
