    The first was an injunction in which I was asking to not allow the other tenants (claimant inclusive) to not be allow to enter into the property without my consent.
    Is your property a flat with a shared entrance hall? If so, you can't expect other tenants only to be allowed to enter with your permission. That is not reasonable.

    I hope you're looking for alternative accommodation. I don't see this ending well, even if you're successful at court.

    Yes, it is a flat with a shared entrance hall. Even I can't expect other tenants only to be allowed to enter with my permission that does not mean they were to harass/threat me and it is me that should pay them some money.

    Obviously, I am looking for another accommodation.

    If your original request to the court was for other tenants only to be able to access the shared entrance with your permission, that was never going to happen. The issue wasn't them accessing that space, it was them harassing you. You really need legal advice, is there a law centre near you which might be able to help at a reduced cost? This is a link to my local, for example.

    It is the defendant who manage the property (except my room and myself) and it also him the selected the other tenant as occupiers of the property, so he is responsible of their acts. Anyway, it is obvious for me he has instructed the others tenants to harass me (like he previously did in complicity with landlord by asking previous tenant to assault tenant).
    These law centres does not want to help since they do not obtain legal aid for injunction application.

    Is this a shared house or a house split into separate flats?
    Unless I say otherwise 'you' means the general you not you specifically.

    It is a shared house. I have submitted the N244 but now they have filed a defence and counterclaim and I am now asked to file the form N180.

    Did you really expect them just to accept things?

    Are you now in a position to move elsewhere?

    I am confused. It sounds like you all actually live in one house together? Does the landlord live there as well? How long have you got left on your contract? Has your landlord registered your deposit?

  • I am having difficulty in understanding the situation. I think you are alleging that your landlord and another tenant started an argument and tried to start a fight with you. They are harassing and making threats to you (no details of threats or intimidation given) and are stealing your mail. The landlord tried to evict you and failed.

    The police have been called but have been unable to do anything stating it is a civil matter. Presumably because in their view, in full possession of the facts, no law has been broken. It is just neighbours that do not get on.

    You did not complain to the royal mail about your post and allow them to carry out an investigation. They take allegations like this very seriously. Instead you went straight to court with no evidence.


    You applied to the court to prevent you fellow tenants from entering or leaving their home without your express permission. This was denied and you wish to appeal the decision.

    Are you for real?

    I fail to understand why you are not looking to move, instead of going down the litigation route - why not expend your time, energy and money on finding accommodation which is more suited to you?

    That's what I would be doing in your circumstances! Sometimes you have to move on!
