Landlord Law Blog Roundup from 17th August

This post is more than 5 years old

August 23, 2020 by Tessa Shepperson

There is a certain amount of turmoil in the air as the plans to re-open the courts for tenant evictions were cancelled at the last moment on Friday when the stay which has been in place since March was extended for another 4 weeks.

We shall have to see.  In the meantime – what happened on the blog last week?
