He denies the allegations and in a sworn affidavit to the court says that in an incident that occurred in a neighbouring property in early June he was the victim of anti-social behaviour and was assaulted.He claims that he sought to have the dispute with Tuath heard by the Residential Tenancies Board , the body whose functions includes the provision of a dispute resolution service for tenants and landlords.
However earlier this week he was informed over a phone call by a representative of the defendant that Tuath had not received anything from the RTB. He also secured a temporary order preventing the defendant and its agents from trespassing, occupying or entering the premises pending the RTB determination of the disputed notice of termination.
Following that incident he claims that the received a notice of termination of his lease from his landlord, which gave him seven days to vacate his home.
