From the tribunal's reasons on the amount
conduct of both landlord and tenant, the landlord’s financial circumstances and whether the landlord has been prosecuted. … There is no evidence to demonstrate that the landlord has been prosecuted. … The Tribunal rejects assertions about poor conduct by both the respondent and the applicant. The assertion that the applicant used the respondent’s kitchen utensils and an allegation that he smoked in his room did not appear to the Tribunal to have been of concern to the respondent as she returned the applicant’s full deposit on 03/12/2022. Further the respondent’s allegation that the applicant had opened her mail, was without substance. … The allegations by the applicant that the respondent screamed and shouted at him, and that she had broken into his room, after he had ignored her knocking at the door, were found by the Tribunal to be as a result of the breakdown of their previously good relations. … There is no evidence to suggest that the respondent is in financial difficulty such as to restrict an award. … The applicant paid a gross total rent of £750 pcm during that period. The rent was inclusive of utilities which included gas, electricity, internet, water and council tax. The only evidence of utilities from the respondent is a simple statement in additional evidence of £1001.49 pcm without any supporting bills. …
