ECC 2300/64
Background
A landlord filed a case against a tenant and requested the court to order the tenant to vacate a disputed flat. The landlord stated the tenant had rented the flat from his father according to a tenancy agreement dated 03/12/1985 but he had refused to pay the rent.
The court ruled that the tenant should vacate the flat.
The tenant appealed the ruling before the court of appeal. The court upheld the appealed ruling.
Decision
The tenant appealed the ruling before the court of cassation and stated in his grounds of appeal that the law had violated the right of defence because he had requested the court to reconsider the case and give him the opportunity to provide documents which would change the ruling outcome but the court had rejected his request.
