Reasons

The landlord has applied for termination of the tenancy for abandonment through the expedited process under section 91AA Residential Tenancies Act 1986.

Are there grounds for an expedited application?

I am satisfied that the two requirements for the expedited process are met: a. The tenant does not want to contest the abandonment application. b. The information provided by the landlord with the application is sufficient to enable the Tribunal to determine it properly without a hearing (either on the basis of that information alone or with only minor clarifications).

Should the tenancy be terminated?

The Tribunal may terminate the tenancy where the premises have been abandoned and rent is in arrears 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 7 June 2024 the landlord became aware (or ought to have been aware) that the tenant had abandoned the premises. The landlord states that they carried out an inspection after they could not contact the tenant. They discovered that the locks to the premises had been changed.

After gaining access they found no one there and evidence of marijuana cultivation through the house. Photographs were provided of plants, blacked out windows, and overturned furniture.

The landlord provided rent records which prove the amount owing at today’s date.

Because the premises have been abandoned, and rent is in arrears, I am terminating the tenancy immediately.

All the requirements for an expedited abandonment application have been met. The hearing is adjourned for the landlord to file an amended claim on the attached form, within two months of this order, for rent arrears and any other orders arising from the end of the tenancy.
