Landlord and Tenant Act 1954 – demolition – misrepresentation – compensation

Saturn Leisure Ltd v Havering London Borough Council [2014] EWHC 3717 (Ch) (Mr S Monty QC) (14 November 2014)

This case enhances the learning of the application of s37A Landlord and Tenant Act 1954 (the Act) and is valuable for that reason alone but as it held there was no misrepresentation the court was not required to assess damages. Thus we still await a decided case in which damages are awarded and we can understand the approach the courts will take.
