Contract

P R Hardman & Partners v Greenwood and another [2017] EWCA Civ 52, [2017] EWCA Civ 52

The Court of Appeal, Civil Division dismissed an appeal by a caravan park owner (the owner) against a decision rejecting the owner’s case that the occupiers of the park were liable to pay a general service charge in respect of maintenance of utilities. The court found that the relevant part of the agreement which was subject to the Mobile Homes Act 1983, was limited to utilities supplied by third party providers and work by third parties in respect of such utilities and not to utilities and other services provided by or on behalf of the owners.
