The Raptors of Penwith - Nuisance: The Property Tort

The Tort of Nuisance has split the Supreme Court 3:2 and now divided three members of the Court of Appeal. In this talk, Jonathan Gaunt KC will review the principles and what is and is not "Nuisance".

Enforcing access injunctions: Can you use force?

Injunctions permitting a landlord to access premises can be granted in a range of circumstances, but what happens when a tenant refuses to comply (either deliberately or through non-responsiveness)? Can access be forced; if so, how; and if not, what are a landlord's alternatives? Edward Blakeney and Kavish Shah run through the options.
