    That one could be easily side swerved and I doubt the LL could get a court order in the next 5 weeks anyway. In reality the biggest danger OP and co tenants face is a CCJ after they have left with papers served to last known address.



    I agree it's unlikely, but a quiet court and they could be out in 2 weeks.

    If a judgement was handed down, not paid, and the county court felt that enforcement was unlikely they could authorise it.


    BUT you said:
    "The Landlord could run out of patience, and escalate this to the High court, at any time" - given there's not even been a date for the county court, your comment was hardly helpful

    Just pointing out the worst case scenario.

    Which I`m sure the OP will be aware of anyway.

    I`m sorry you thought it unhelpful.
