Public law and discrimination challenges to possession claims
Cases such as LB Wandsworth v Winder [1985] AC 461 and Manchester City Council v Pinnock [2011] 2 AC 104 seem very well established now yet public law and discrimination defences continue to come before the higher courts. See for example [2020] HLR 27, Paragon ASRA Housing Ltd v Neville [2018] HLR 39 and Dacorum Borough Council v Powell [2019] HLR 21.
The webinar was chaired by Dean Underwood, who has had experience of these issues in the higher courts, and includes contributions from housing and public law teams’ members - Andy Lane, Ryan Kohli, Riccardo Calzavara, and Rowan Clapp.
This webinar is from the fourth day of Cornerstone Barristers' Housing Week series.
