Filing Fee Rent arrears

Order

The tenancy of Paniora Peepi Gerrard at Unit/Flat A, 100 Budge Street, Riversdale, Blenheim 7201 is terminated, and possession is granted to Josh Ward and Fiona Jacinta Ward immediately.
The Bond Centre is to pay the bond of $1,920.00 (6479576-001) to Josh Ward and Fiona Jacinta Ward immediately.
Paniora Peepi Gerrard must pay Josh Ward and Fiona Jacinta Ward $14,963.44 immediately, calculated as shown in the table below:

Reasons

The landlord attended the hearing. There was no appearance by the tenant. She has previously appeared for an earlier hearing pertaining to this tenancy.
The landlord has applied for termination of the tenancy for abandonment, rent arrears and refund of the bond.
A prior order providing for conditional termination was not enforceable when sought in November 2023 due to an earlier tenant breach of the payment terms. That breach was a one-off and remedied but it triggered the 90-day timer for enforcement (See section 64(4)(b) Residential Tenancies Act 1986).

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. See section 61 Residential Tenancies Act 1986. 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 30 November 2023 the landlord became aware (or ought to have been aware) that the tenant had abandoned the premises. Rent had stopped and while the tenant had not been seen by neighbours or the landlord, reports of other recognisable occupants residing there had been relayed to the landlord. Upon an inspection around this date the landlord discovered the tenant’s possession had been removed.
Because the premises have been abandoned, and rent is in arrear, the tenancy is terminated immediately.

How much does the tenant owe?

The landlord provided rent records which prove the amount owing at the end of the tenancy. The amount ordered includes rent in lieu of notice (28 days). Application filing fee
Because Josh Ward, Fiona Jacinta Ward has wholly succeeded with the claim I must reimburse the filing fee.
