locolupa Posted November 13, 2008 Report Posted November 13, 2008 Well, after what seems an age, my 97 yr old aunt will be applying on Dec 1st for a possession order after issuing a S8. It has been checked by a solicitor and is ok. She moved into a council flat to allow her adopted daughter and husband to live there. This daughter has since died and she wants the house back. Now the questions I have are: On the n19 The assured tenancy began in 1990 but she can’t remember the month and it was a verbal agreement. What do I put?She is claiming Ground 6 (substantial renovation) Ground 8 (non payment of rent over 8 weeks (40 actually!) Ground 10 Ground 11 Ground 12 Ground 13 Ground 14 What do I put in part 4 a and b? Do I just give a short description? In part 8 should I give her financial status? (it’s dire) On N5: For ‘full particulars of claim’ do I just include the S8 or should I also write a covering letter? What should I include? Hope someone can help!
lauralivesartnouveau Posted November 13, 2008 Report Posted November 13, 2008 Hi Florrie If you have issued a section 8 and you have used ground 8 and if as you say 40 weeks of rent arrears. you should have no problems as ground 8 is a mandatory ground so a judge must provide you with possession. it is the only one you really need to worry about. once the two week notice expires you can then app;ly to the court for a possession hearing to obtain a possession order. The easiest way to do this is via www.possessionclaim.gov.uk its run by the court service and its free to use you only pay the court fee which is £50 cheaper than the paper format. Hope this proves helpful Oliver
