Dear Forum,
Had a first part of a hearing for possession today, which went semi OK as Judge has agreed for it to go to next stage, but advised that my Section 8 form was invalid.
I have used the same form for years (Statutory Instrument 1997 No. 194) The Assured Tenancies and Agricultural Occupancies (Forms) Regulations 1997.
Can see that the only change is the actual title for the new form, so the Judge had suggested I seek legal advice.
I clearly don't want to start again as been waiting since January to evict 2 horrible drugsters from my property.
The other issue is that when I have made my application on PCOL I can't see any boxes where I can tick Anti Social Behaviour, as when the form is printed, its shows a blank in the box. I tried a dummy run as concerned that delays may occur where a box can't be ticked but have only been able to add anti social in my notes.
Would be grateful if anyone has heard of older Section 8's being refused or if there is a part on PCOL to add anti social.
Thanks for your time, but thought I would add, as thankfully tenants didn't show, but would hate for others to make the same mistake.
