An appreciation by Phillip Taylor MBE and Elizabeth Taylor of Richmond Green Chambers
Appropriate to their remit, the Legal Action Group, has brought out another publication that -- since the first edition was published in 1980 -- has proved itself invaluable, not just for practitioners, but for the general reader as well.
As the LAG is the access to justice charity, this new 7th edition of `Quite Enjoyment' does precisely that: it offers access to justice, this time for the beleaguered householder and/or tenant faced with harassment and therefore deprived of the quiet enjoyment of his or her home. Not for nothing does the New Law Journal refer to `Quiet Enjoyment' as the essential handbook for this area of practice.
In essence it aims to provide a practical guide to the law and clarifies all the relevant issues pertaining to the rights of occupiers of residential property.
The book is logically divided into two parts to cover both civil and criminal proceedings. The section on civil proceedings deals, for example, with causes of action... breach of contract... torts specific to unlawful eviction... and of course much more.
Part II on criminal proceedings covers mainly the areas relating to three pieces of legislation: Protection from Eviction Act 1977... from Harassment Act 1997... and the Criminal Law Act 1977.
New to this edition is an additional appendix which covers other remedies of which victims of harassment or unlawful eviction may avail themselves. There are additional powers dealt with aimed at anti-social behaviour, including noise.
Resources for further study and research abound in this extensively footnoted, thorough and thoroughly readable work of reference, including table of cases, statutes, statutory instruments and European legislation. As a further aid to navigation, there's a detailed index at the back, together with three appendices, including the one covering other remedies just mentioned.
If you're a practitioner specializing in housing, or involved in tenancy relations, or possibly just needing plain-speaking advice yourself, this is the definitive source of the advice you looking for, in both handy paperback format, or as an e-book. The publication date is cited as at 2012.
