Tenancy – Legal Deadline – Rent
This case involved an appeal of a rent determination decision. A key issue was the date of the tenancy and whether the committee had been informed within the legal deadline.
Background
Claimants filed a case against the defendants and requested the court dismiss the decision made by the rent determination committee and stated the first defendant had not informed the committee of the date of his tenancy within the legal deadline.
The first defendant filed a case against the claimants and requested the court order them to decrease the rent of the flat to 25 Egyptian Pounds.
The court rejected the defendant's case and ruled the decision should be dismissed.
The first defendant appealed the ruling before the court of appeal. The court abandoned the appealed ruling and rejected the two cases.
