Landlord definition

What does Landlord mean? In legal practice, a landlord is the person or entity that grants a lease or tenancy of land or buildings and retains the immediate reversionary interest. The term is used descriptively across property and housing law; while particular statutes define “landlord” for specific regimes (notably residential tenancies), its core meaning is consistent in England & Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland and Ireland. A landlord is entitled to receive rent and enforce the tenant’s covenants and other obligations, and may exercise contractual and statutory remedies (such as possession proceedings, forfeiture in England & Wales and Northern Ireland, or irritancy in Scotland) where the...

Tomlin orders in England and Wales: CPR guidance on drafting, confidentiality, approval, variation, enforcement, limitation, CCA issues, court-specific requirements, sample wording and precedents

This Practice Note This Practice Note reviews mechanisms used in settling litigation. A Tomlin order consists of a consent order paired with a schedule. It operates to stay proceedings on terms that have been agreed. The provisions contained in the schedule may remain confidential. This Practice Note describes the scope of confidentiality attaching to the schedule and sets out how it differs from a standard consent order. Sample wording for a Tomlin order is included, alongside links to precedents, as well as guidance on court approval. It also addresses varying, setting aside and enforcing a Tomlin order, including the considerations the court will take into account when handling applications for each. Further guidance is provided on interpreting and applying the relevant provisions of the CPR; however, some courts and divisions impose very specific requirements for both drafting and approval, and for approaching the schedule and confidentiality issues. Accordingly, you must consider the particular rules and court guide provisions in the forum where your claim is proceeding when drawing up the Tomlin order...
