Judgment text excerpt
The case involves a dispute between a new owner (the Appellant), who purchased a building from the original landlady, and a tenant (the Respondent). The tenant challenged the sale and refused to pay rent based on a claimed oral agreement to sell. The court examines the recovery of possession and arrears of rent following the transfer of ownership through a registered sale deed.
