238. Relief to persons and bodies having dependent interests
Feedback & supportAt any time when any person or body is proceeding to enforce the forfeiture of any lease, sublease or tenancy, or at any time after such a forfeiture has been effected, any person or body entitled or, as the case may be, entitled before the forfeiture took effect to any interest dependent thereon (that is to say, to any of the interests specified in paragraphs 236(a) to (c)) may apply to the Court for an order under this section.
On any such application the Court may if it thinks it just to do so in all the circumstances of the case, and on such terms as it thinks fit, order any person or body to grant to the applicant a lease, sublease or tenancy (as appropriate) of the whole or any part of the land held, or formerly held, by the applicant or the applicant’s chargor, as the case may be, for a period not exceeding that for which the land is or was so held.
