Notice to quit for subletting

Notice to quit for subletting - 1989 - EGCS 1989 113 .

The landlord sought a declaration that the counternotice in reply to a notice to quit for subletting in breach of the tenancy agreement was invalid. The tenant was able to demonstrate that the notice to quit in accordance with Agricultural Holdings Act 1986 Schedule 3 Case E and s26(2) was invalid as he had correspondence from the landlord agreeing to the subletting of the cottages. The case was Lord Rous (Earl of Stradbroke) v Mitchell ChD 14 July 1989.
