Illegal eviction

Landlord Discussion Legal
1

I entered a twelve month tenancy with my landlord. In may he didn’t put my bond into the bond scheme and threw my partner and myself out in June and refunded me £600 out of my £1300 deposit and my rent was in near a thousand pounds in advance rent. It was a shared house. The police raided the house for drugs every one was handcuffed and searched but nothing found landlord threw 3 out of six tenants out. Can he do this

You need to clarify:

  • Did he actually throw you out or did he ask you to leave and you left?
  • Did you use the apartment for illegal or anti social activities (and was ordered to leave)?

please claify " he threw me and and my partner out in June" - did he issue you an eviction notice or did he physically force your to leave . He cannot legally do the latter (he needs to get a possession order and use baliffs to remove you ) but he can do the former .
If he resorts to court actions and bailiffs you may have to pay the costs - but that depends how the court rules. YOu mayneed legal advice .

He gave me a date four weeks and told me I had to leave. There was no drugs or paraphernalia found in the building in anyone room.
No notice to quit or eviction notice court order or bailiffs involvement

Its an illegal eviction. If you want redress, contact a no-win, no-fee lawyer who will sue him for that and the failure to protect the deposit.
