Service-charge liability

Service-charge liability - 1992 - Estates Gazette (9229) 25 July 1992, 127(1) .

In "Northways Flats Management Co (Camden) Ltd v Wimpey Pension Trustees Ltd" 1992 it was held that the landlords were not entitled to claim the tenants` contribution to maintenance work because the landlords had failed to comply with a condition to submit estimates to the tenants before work was carried out. In many service charge cases the courts view the obligation to pay and to perform as independent.
