Lease – injunction to restore lift service – service charges – costs – entitlement of landlord to withhold services if service charges not paid

Winchester Park Limited v Sehayak [2016] EWHC 1216 (QB) Garnham J (26 May 2016)

Again staying with CPR for the moment we mention this case in brief as it concerns the restoration of a lift service and the question of costs as between landlord and tenant. The case concerns a lease of residential premises but the principle is of general application to landlord and tenant law.
