Missing out on promotion

Missing out on promotion - 2009 - Property Week 75(7) 13 February 2009, 52(1) .

Summarises the case of Boots UK Ltd v Trafford Centre Ltd [2008] EWCH 3372(Ch), 8 December 2008 (see L146772). Landlords' solicitors need to be careful when drafting service charge clauses. The Court determined that the definition of 'promotion' within the terms of a lease should be decided not by attempting a comprehensive definition, but to decide whether it was within the ordinary understanding of a form of promotion.
