squatters in our flat

[tfwsoll]

Ianr - in squatting cases it's usual to take possession against 'persons unknown' - you can then evict whoever is in the property when the bailiffs arrive if another group have taken up occupation. Squatters won't give their real names anyway - we recently evicted a number of squatters from various properties and we are now finding utilities bills in the properties to John Malkovitch, amongst others.

They left before the IPO - they may have been back since and seen the ipo? - there's no way of really knowing

Great news, best of luck

Congratulations! Nice one for posting your progress on here as well - like you said it might help others in a similar situation.

Bet you are relieved to say the least!

finding utilities bills in the properties to John Malkovitch,

Well at least they had good taste in films if nothing else.

Great news.

John Malkovitch - what a bastard. Fancy doing a flit without paying the bills. With all his money too.

Yeah, kind of puts a new take on 'Looking for John Malkovich' doesn't it......:)

My parents have delayed the IPO, or whatever stage their at, so the court case has been deferred indefinitely

They will pick things up again if the squatters come back but it's a cold building site now with no running water

We know they've been back cos their bed, which we'd put in the hallway, went over the w/e

We have screwed in bars across the window so there was no way of getting in now
