   ...fence has an effect on both parties. Furthermore, not that I accept their argument, but if I did, J Ltd’s argument is weakened in that the screws used to fix the posts to the boundary fence would have to breach the “middle line” to provide some form of strength for the posts to hold the corrugated iron.

If the head tenant wants to impose new terms and conditions after the flatmate has moved in, that is considered a variation of the original agreement. A variation cannot be imposed unilater...

Even though he says he asked the buyers abou...
