The tenant did not answer his phone when the Tribunal telephoned. The electronic file indicates the tenant was given notice of the hearing and several reminders of the hearing date and time. There being no explanation given for the tenant’s non-attendance, the hearing proceeded in the tenant’s absence.
The landlord has applied for termination of the tenancy for abandonment, rent arrears, reimbursement of the filing fee, and payment over of the bond.

Should the tenancy be terminated?

The Tribunal may terminate the tenancy where the premises have been abandoned and rent is in arrear at the hearing date. 1
A tenancy is abandoned where the tenant leaves the premises without reasonable excuse, not intending to return or to meet their obligations, and fails to notify the landlord.
On 6 December 2023, Ms Hix conducted a routine inspection and found the tenant had vacated the premises.
Because the tenant has abandoned the premises and rent is in arrear, the tenancy is terminated immediately.

How much does the tenant owe for rent and a window repair?

The landlord provided rent records which prove the amount owing at the end of the tenancy which is deemed to be 3 January 2023. 2
During the tenancy, the landlord paid to have a broken window repaired. The tenant has not proved he did not cause the damage carelessly or intentionally. The landlord produced an invoice proving the cost of repairing the window. 3 Filing fee and bond 1 See s 61 of the Residential Tenancies Act 1986 (RTA). 2 See s 66(3) of the RTA. 3 See s 49B of the RTA.
Because the landlord has substantially succeeded in its claim, the Tribunal must order the tenant to reimburse the filing fee.
The bond is to be paid out to the landlord in part payment of the judgement debt.
