    Where I am from, if it is a HMO it needs a license to confirm that you meet the required standards in that area. hardwired fire detection, fire doors, fire extinguishers, kitchens of certain size, fridges of certain size per residdent, bathrooms per x number of residents etc.

    Also with the deposit, it is clear that the LL has messed up, but he should just have protected it before going to court. Happened numerous times prior. cant find the case law but it is there.

    Claimant has provided a certificate for section 21. There's no proof that the cheque was served on 27 march 2013 and I won't help them.

    What is the case if the cheque for the deposit was received the same day or after the section notice (the envelopes for both documents are stamped on 25th March 2013).

    The certificate of service provided by landlord say that "the date of service" is 27 March 2013 : I think this is wrong since the stamp on its envelope is dated 25 March 2013 (as for the cheque). Am I right?
    So you would be willing to commit perjury ?

    I think I've finally come to the conclusion OP is on a wind-up. She claimed the solicitor had a conflict of interest and doesn't want to specify why, presumably only because the solicitor didn't tell her what she wanted to hear. And she keeps pulling things out of her a*se.

    Which will show both section 21 and cheque served by post on the same day. Therefore Eduoard will not be able to prove the section 21 was served first. If he goes to court with the current section 21, by the time he's waited for the court date etc. he'd have wasted a lot of time risking it would be ruled in his favour. a big risk as it is for the landlord to prove the section 21 is valid. The best thing Eduoard could do is to serve a fresh section 21 and start the eviction clock ticking on solid ground.

    There is no need for perjury from the tenant.
