High Court dismisses tenant's appeal against RTB's decision in favour of landlord

THE HIGH COURT has dismissed a tenant’s appeal against a finding by the Residential Tenancies Board that the landlord of a property in Galway was entitled to terminate the tenancy.

In his ruling the judge said that most serious part of the action against the RTB, where the landlord was a notice party, was the claim that she discriminated against under the 2000 Equal Status Act. The court noted that Fitzpatrick, who had represented herself in the matter, was one of two tenants of Brett’s property.

The judge, who said that it was “difficult to identify the precise point of law relied on” by Fitzpatrick in the appeal, said the application should be set aside for several reasons.
