Abstract

The article discusses case law on whether relief against forfeiture of a lease could be granted following a payment of rent by a third party. In particular, it considers Matthews v Dobbins [1963] 1 WLR 227 involving a payment into court of rent arrears and costs under s.191(1) of the County Courts Act 1959 and Barking and Dagenham LBC v Omokudu [2020] EWHC 2620 (Ch) on whether a payment of rent by a bankrupt tenant's solicitor was void under s.284(1) of the Insolvency Act 1986.
