Keepers and Governers of the Possessions Revenues and Goods of the Free Grammar School of John Lyon v Vignaud - 1993 - Estates Gazette (1993) 26 EG 128(1) .

CC 9 July 1992. K demised a house for 70 years, assigned in 1979 to the respondent V. In December 1990, V served a notice for reduction of rateable value in recognition of improvements and two months later claimed entitlement to acquire the freehold. This claim was contested by K who argued that the rv of the property was too high on the appropriate day. The court upheld the applicant`s case stating that V`s notice of claim was ineffective on the grounds that right to acquire could only arise after the necessary reduction had been agreed or certified.
