Agent has issued a Section 21 with a misspelt Christian Name but correct surname, just one letter wrong in forename. Would he need to issue a new one.

If you are the agent and the landlord, issue a new one. If you are the tenant, assume that the court would be happy with the old one.I am not a lawyer, nor am I licensed to provide any regulated advice. None of my posts should be treated as legal or financial advice.

It should be the latter. Whilst the court is more likely to want a notice to be correct in all respects if it has to be in a prescribed form, the general rule is that a notice is not invalidated if the recipient is not misled. No one would query a notice if the address of the premises contained "Raod" instead of "Road". There is no reason why it should not be the same if the recipient's name is shown as "Tohmas" instead of "Thomas". If the name is wrong the recipient may have a case, but possibly not if "Robin" should be "Robert".

Reply to Court reviewby ddqYes, I will do that. Thank you.
With the tenant, to put a CCJ on him, is going to this hearing the only way? Or this hearing is only for possession of the property. After the hearing, court gives order for possession, then we go to bailiffs or high court enforcement. Then only after the...-
