Nat Duckworth acts for the landlord in live/work planning case
The Court of Appeal has handed down judgment in AHGR v Kane-Laverack, a second appeal in which the issue was whether the term “live/work unit”, in a planning permission and a user covenant in a lease, meant “live and/or work” or “live and work”. The Court of Appeal decided that the former meaning is correct. The Court of Appeal left open the question of whether “work” was to be equated with business activities because it was not strictly necessary to resolve that subsidiary issue, having regard to its conclusions about the meaning of the oblique stroke. Nat Duckworth acted for the appellant landlord instructed by @Colman Coyle. The judgment can be found here.
