Filing Fee Rent arrears

Order

Payments will be allocated in the following order: rent, rent arrears, and the filing fee.
If the tenant fails to pay rent and rent arrears within 2 working days of the due dates: a. The tenancy at Unit/Flat Flat 1, 542 Swanson Road, Ranui, Auckland 0612 will terminate and the landlord will have immediate possession of the premises. b. The balance of the debt will be payable immediately.
If the tenant fails to pay the filing fee within 2 working days of the due date, the filing fee will be payable immediately.

Reasons

Both parties attended the hearing, which was conducted by video/teleconference.
The landlord has applied for termination of the tenancy and rent arrears. Rent records have been provided, and the landlord has confirmed that the records are correct. The landlord has explained that it has deducted, from the amount payable in rent, a sum to reflect the work the tenant did at the premises. There is also a rent credit on 13 August 2026, as shown in the rent summary, being compensation arising from the broken hot water cylinder and sewage spill.
The tenant wants to repay the debt to avoid immediate termination. He has explained his current situation.

Should a conditional termination order be made?

Where rent is at least 21 days in arrears on the date the application was filed, the Tribunal must make either a final or a conditional termination order. See section 55(1)(a) and (1A) of the Residential Tenancies Act 1986 (the RTA).
I have granted a conditional termination order with the consent of the landlord. The tenant has agreed to pay the debt in accordance with the terms specified in the order. The tenant agrees to make arrangements to ensure the additional payment of $40.00 per week commences from his next rent payment date, which is on Tuesday 25 August 2026.
The conditional termination order will lapse if it is fully complied with.
If the tenant breaches the order, the possession order may be enforced for 90 days from the first breach. See section 64(4)(b) of the RTA. Filing fee and name suppression
Because the landlord has been successful, the tenant is to pay the landlord’s filing fee.
Neither party seeks name suppression.
