Evicting a Tenant
Comments
-
try google...To transfer getting a Warrant of Possession to the high court, what is the benefit of that. Does it get dealt with quicker?
What is the extra cost for doing it that way?
Also, doing it that way, can the tenant still raise a defence?
- What do High Court Enforcement Officers do?
- How much does it cost to use a High Court Enforcement Officer?
- Can the Defendant do anything to stop the Writ?

Not sure of your first sentence.
I use a letting agent, and we have followed all the processes correctly.
The tenant is lying, avoided all contact for months, and now claims she did not get the possession order.
That's not even mentioning the unpaid rents
She would not let the agent into the property to do an inspection last week
I dread to find out what on earth is going on inside.0 -
Believe it or not, when I was being evicted (LL was selling, no arrears), I didn't get the possession order. I had to visit the court and make phone calls to get a very badly photocopied copy sent to me, two weeks later. The court was such a shambles, I suspect it was never sent rather than lost in the post.
I needed the possession order to show the council so desperately needed it.
The tenant may not be lying about that. I couldn't believe how difficult it was to get the possession order lol.0 -

If I was in that situation I would have hand delivered the papers from the court to the tenant at the address.
As a LL you would have got a copy too.:jTo be Young AGAIN!!!!...what a wonderfull thought!!!!!:rolleyes:0 -
Is the onus on me to deliver the Possession Order to the Tenant?
Surely it is for the court to do that, as I have no contact with the Tenant0 -
I would cover my backside and take a photo of yourself delivering a copy to occupier regardlessIs the onus on me to deliver the Possession Order to the Tenant?

When applying for HCEO to evict tenants, is it's only discretionary order and Judges can turn down request....Advice given on Assured and Regulated Tenancy, Further advice should always be sought from a Solicitor....0

Think I will not go for the HCEO route for now. Filled in the N325 and emailed it and paid them. Spoke to the Bailiff for this area. Told me should get a date within 3 weeks, but will try to do it sooner if he can.
Is 3 weeks the norm?0 -

The admin side at the court have made many !!!!-ups.
Can I use that as an excuse to tell the bailiff to deal with my case sooner?0 -
3 weeks is actually quite quick!
A number of courts are quite severely in arrears with their work (funding cuts = staff cuts even when the workload is increasing) so I wouldn't push too hard or you might find that you end up further down the queue!
What mistakes have been made by the admin side at the court? Are you certain that it was them making the mistakes and not your solicitor?0
