On the Case: S Franses heads to the Supreme Court

Next week, the Supreme Court will hear a keenly anticipated appeal in S Franses v Cavendish Hotel (London) Ltd [2017] EWHC 1670 (QB); [2017] EGLR 34 - a major case in respect of the operation  of section 30(1)(f) of the Landlord and Tenant Act 1954.

Joanne Wicks QC and Ben Faulkner, of Wilberforce Chambers, who act for the tenant, S Franses, explain just why the case has attracted so much industry interest, and take us through its journey through the courts so far - as well as analysing the practical effect of the decision as it stands, and the arguments raised in next week's appeal.
