Business Premises – Implied Periodic Tenancy – Security of Tenure

Mann Aviation Group (Engineering) Limited (In Administration) v Longmint Aviation Limited (1) and Gama Support Services (Fairoaks) Limited [2011] EWHC 2238 (Ch) (Sales J)(19 August 2011)

This case does not create any new law but the facts serve as a useful reminder that a landlord can unwittingly create an implied periodic tenancy which gives to the tenant security of tenure within the meaning of the Landlord and Tenant Act 1954.
