From the tribunal's reasons on the amount
to answer questions as to why she was so desperate to get inside. The Tribunal was not persuaded this was to examine a leak, which had appeared in August and been repaired at that time. There was no logical explanation provided by the Respondent in her evidence as to why it was so important for her to access the Property when the Applicant was out of the country. … There can be consequently no finding that an offence was committed under sections 1(3) or 1(3A). … It was clear to the Tribunal that the parties had a difficult relationship, with a great deal of misunderstanding, mistrust and miscommunication be- tween them. The correspondence (from both parties) was fractious at times. There is little doubt that the Respondent was the author of her own misfortune by failing to communicate with the Applicant why she wished to access the Property. … The Tribunal finds that the behaviour of the Respondent was not ideal, but was not designed to harass the Applicant into giving up the Property.
