Kavish Shah has written in the Landlord & Tenant Review about Turner v Thomas [2022] EWCA Civ 1446

Kavish Shah has written in the Landlord & Tenant Review about Turner v Thomas [2022] EWCA Civ 1446 in which the Court of Appeal decided that a notice to quit addressed to the wrongly identified recipient cannot be saved by the Mannai principle. The article discusses how the decision is compatible with R. (Morris) v London Rent Assessment Committee [2002] EWCA Civ 276 and brings the law in line with Scottish authority. Whilst the decision brings clarity to the law, the article raises the potentially still open issue of a notice which incorrectly names the wrong person as tenant but simultaneously addresses them correctly by designation. You can access the article on Westlaw here
