The Owners - Units Plan No 60 v Adam (Civil Dispute)

The Owners - Units Plan No 60 sought to recover an amount of money from Adam in the Civil Dispute Resolution Tribunal. The dispute arose from the alleged failure of Adam to pay for strata levies owed to the applicant. The Tribunal was required to determine whether Adam owed the money to the applicant and, if so, whether the amount claimed was correct.

In determining the legal issues, the Tribunal examined the terms of the Strata Schemes Management Act 1996 and the specific strata plan under which Adam's unit was registered. The Tribunal found that Adam did indeed owe money to the applicant in the form of unpaid strata levies. The amount owed was calculated by reviewing the relevant financial records and taking into account any relevant discounts or credits that had been applied. The Tribunal concluded that the amount claimed by the applicant was correct and ordered Adam to pay the amount within 14 days of the date of the order.
