Claim types — money lines allowed on this order
Order
- Shirley Kira and Joseph Kira must pay Mills Gibbon And Co Limited $558.00 immediately, calculated as shown in table below.
Reasons
- The landlord represented by Ms Woods attended the hearing which was held by video conference. The tenants did not seek to be admitted to the hearing at the scheduled time. The tenants have been served notice of the hearing to their email which is an address for service on their tenancy agreement. In such circumstances the Tribunal may conduct a hearing in a party’s absence.
- The landlord has applied for rent arrears and reimbursement of the filing fee.
How much is owed for rent?
- The landlord provided information that the amount of rent arrears owing to the end of the current rent period is $530.00. I have no reason to doubt the accuracy of this information.
- The claim and amount ordered are proved.
- Because Mills Gibbon And Co Limited has wholly succeeded with the claim I must reimburse the filing fee.
