getting evicted - but no paperwork

by beryl

I have today been told that I am getting evicted and that there is a hearing next week.
But I haven't received any Court papers, no notice to quit, no section 8, or section 21.

Reply to Mould/witholding rent/C19 eviction rights

Reply to Leaving before s21 notice expires?

by jpkeates

I don't have any idea how this is meant to work.
But, the only people who really matter are the landlord and the tenant.

Leaving before s21 notice expires?

by Kj47

I have received a s21 notice to leave at the end of August (this includes the current extended 3 month covid19 period). I wish to leave the property early as I have now found another property to rent but this can only be ‘held’ for a period of 2 months by the letting agent. I have asked if I can...
