Claughton v Charalambous: 1998

What is required of the court in applying section 335A(3) is, in effect, a value judgment. The court must look at all the circumstances and conclude whether or not they are exceptional. That process, he considered, left ‘very little scope for the interference by an appellate court’. The court here found a reason to suspend an order for possession where an occupier suffered a terminal disease.
