figures not yet checked

The tribunal found that no on-account service charges were payable for the 2026 year because the demand exceeded the lease cap and lacked a required statutory summary of rights, made a section 20C order, and ordered the landlord side to refund the £341 fee, while ground rent was outside its jurisdiction.

Read from the decision automatically: a regular-expression pass, then a language model whose every value must quote the decision word for word; the two readings disagreed on something, so these figures haven't been checked yet and are left out of the statistics. Compare with the original.
