Struck outNew rulesDecided 30 September 2026Case CAM/00KA/MRA/2026/0052

No rent was set

The application was struck out, so the tribunal did not set a rent. This most often happens when the landlord's notice was invalid or the tribunal had no jurisdiction.

In short

The landlord proposed raising the rent of a house in LU2 from £1000 a month to £2200 a month. The tribunal struck out the application because the notice was not validly served: it found the tenancy was held jointly by two tenants but the notice named only one, which did not meet section 13(2) and Form 4A of the Housing Act 1988. With no valid notice, the tribunal had no jurisdiction and made no rent determination.
