What happened

The landlords, GK and CM K, applied for an order to determine whether the Residential Tenancies Act, 2006 applies to their dispute with M A. The landlords hired M A to conduct repairs to their rental property, but M A moved into the property and claimed he was a tenant. The landlords denied that a tenancy agreement was formed.

The ruling

The Residential Tenancies Act, 2006 does not apply to the dispute between the landlords and M A. M A is not a tenant, and the landlords did not consent to his occupation of the property.
