Hi All, the directors and managing agent have through their actions breached the landlord own covenants and should not be benefitting from the breach. Do I take this to county court as I dont think this is within the FTT jurisdiction?

I suggest you study the free guide of FTT jurisdiction and costs of application to the FTT . You can ask for a judgement on the reasonableness of the service charge.
The LEASE website keeps records of past FTT judgements on service charges and you can search their data base for cases of servivice charge reduction..

Thank you Gordon however the way the managing agent and directors have structured the deal...asking the leaseholders to pay a third party directly does not come under FTT I have studied cases online...in addition the directors and managing agent entered into contracts when the company had no money. They failed to collect service charges beforehand for the contracts

We have bought a freehold flat which is one of the few flats in the building that has parking permission in the deeds. There are only a few spaces so it isn't allocated and only the flats that have it in the deeds can park in them. The person who owns the freehold to the shared areas and I assume the...

by sarahbrowneOdd one here. Apologies if this is in the wrong place.. but a vote was taken when I was a volunteer director on the board of our freehold company (property is leasehold with share of freehold), about whether or not to pursue a leaseholder for a potential breach of lease. It was very murky, not much...

by eagle2There are many questions which remain unanswered. I agree that another meeting may reverse a decision. We do not know what the Articles say or how the directors have agreed to operate. What do the minutes of the directors' meetings say? Any director has the ability to commit the Company, but was he...

Reply to Freehold shared parking questionThat is the only bit that refers to the parking. It does just mean we can park a car there along with other flat owners if it is stated in their deeds. My issue is that the freehold owner has decided to give some people in this small parking area allocated spaces reducing the amount of space for those...

by LawcruncherI had a look at the Companies Act to see if it provides the answer to the question raised, but it does not seem to be covered by any of the section headings in the index.
I tentatively suggest that the answer is that if a decision is made at a meeting it can only be reversed at another...-
