CA-2025-000320 - [2025] EWCA Civ 1336

The issues

The appeal gives rise to two main issues:

Was Mr Young still owed the main housing duty by the time of the hearing before District Judge Daley?

Was Mr Young in any event precluded from raising the point in the possession proceedings rather than by way of review or appeal under the provisions of the 1996 Act?

I shall take these issues in turn.
