Ure v United Kingdom: ECHR 27 Nov 1996

The applicant’s tenancy came to an end on expiry of a notice to quit given by his wife, formerly a joint tenant with him, and possession was ordered. The Commission held that his complaint under article 8 was manifestly ill-founded because the alleged interference with the applicant’s rights under the article was justified under paragraph (2) of the article.
