Briddon v George: CA 1936

The appellant had bought the house with the defendant as a sitting tenant. He sought possession, saying that he required the house to live in himself, and offered alternative accomodation which had no garage.
Held: The provisions as to whether alternative accomodation was reasonable did not come into play when an appropriate alternative was offered. The Act applied to residential accomodation only, and therefore the garage was not a material consideration.
