The Contractual Boundaries Of A Tenant Relationship
1. The Contractual Boundaries Of A Tenant Relationship
The contractual bounds in a landlord tenant relationship.
The landlord–tenant relationship draws its definition upon the existence of a leasehold estate. A
leasehold interest is usually the right to possession by the tenant. Among the most prominent of real
property leases, is the commercial rental agreement between landlord and tenant. A commercial
lease agreement can be for a fixed period denoted by the period of the lease. Traditionally since the
18th century, it is the right of the landlord to put the tenant into possession in England and Wales.
Moreover, it was the duty of the tenant to pay rent as per the lease independent of the landlord
meeting their duties and obligations under the lease agreement for payment of lease was taken as ...

London & Canadian Loan & Agency Co. further, Section 3(2) of the RDA provides that a landlord
can seize for rent opposing the person of the tenant responsible for the rent. Therefore the definition
of tenant in section 3(1) of the RDA is construed to even include a subtenant, who during the period
of the lease acquires the consent of the tenant to be actual occupation of the leased premises whether
or not he has become the occupant of the landlord's premise. This was held in the case of Smart
Woman Ltd. v. Saleway Estates Ltd. (1987) (Matauschek 2010).
In enforcing the right to distress, the landlord or his bailiff is restricted from breaking into the leased
premises. Where the landlord goes against this restriction, the distraint becomes illegal as the court
held in Beaver Steel Inc. v. Skylark Ventures Ltd. (1983). As such the court established in Tutton v.
Darke (1860) that access must be via the recognised ordinary means of entry to the leased premises,
that is through authorized means of access such as an unlocked door (Mackenzie & Phillips 2014).
The general rule is that the right to distress can only be enforced against goods originating from the
leased premises. However, the court has held in Gastown Investment 21 Ltd. v. Purple Onion
Cabaret Inc., [2005] that a landlord cannot enforce this right against those goods that have a legal
right only such as a liquor license. Moreover, this right is also not available for fixtures that have
been annexed to

2. Alabama Child Support Case Study
The non–custodial parent (NCP), Mr. Pugh's testimony revealed that the bank account is in his

never deducted from his paycheck. He contacted the payroll division of his employer to get
verification of the money being deducted from his paycheck, which showed that he had paid
$5,375.00; he emailed the information to the child support caseworker (CSW), Ms. Guyton, she had
her supervisor to review the information. He was told that the arrears and DNA testing was satisfied;

5. Non-Custodial Parents Case Study
Elmore County DHR's testimony revealed that the parties were divorced on April 25, 2008 in
Montgomery County Circuit Court. At that time, the non–custodial parent (NCP) was ordered to pay
$534.00 a month beginning May 1, 2008. After reviewing ALACOURT, there are no additional
orders regarding this case. The custodial parent (CP) applied for child support services on January
11, 2011. Elmore County DHR's representative referenced Chapter 9.1.2.a.C of the Child Support
Policy and Procedures Manual, which is paraphrased, once the client comes in and there is an order
established prior to the application, the client is to fill out the Affidavit of Past Due Support, and
collect all available payment records; this is what the agency has done. On that same day that the CP
applied for services, the court's payment record was pulled. The CP's Affidavit of Past Due Support
was also received at that time. The balances were loaded on DHR's Alabama Location Enforcement
Child Support System based on all the collected information. In the meantime the hearing was
requested, DHR pulled the court's payment record again to ensure there were no additional
payments that DHR was unaware of and recalculated the arrears on a spreadsheet. The Agency
obtained the same arrears balance, but the interest balance showed a one–cent difference. After
reviewing the arrears, DHR finds no error based on the CP's Affidavit, the court's payment record

7. Essay about We Need Stronger Child Support Laws
The amount of child support cases in arrears would decline if a few things were changed, hopefully
providing incentives to pay child support on time and regularly. There are also harsher consequences
that could be carried out to prevent future mistakes. There are things being done, but is it enough?
As it stands the noncustodial parent can face loss of visitation, probation, and even jail time for none
payment of child support. By not enforcing court ordered child support and making examples out of
those who are not in compliance, we are sending out a message that child support is more of an
option than a legal obligation. Think about the ones who are really suffering here, the children

If the noncustodial parent is already behind on payments they will investigate as much as they can
based on the information you have given to them. However, they will not represent you in court if
that is the next step to be taken. You may also apply for legal aid and if your circumstances are right
and a court appointed lawyer may be provided. However, this does not mean that you will get a
great lawyer or one that is best for your case. The noncustodial parent may get a more experienced
lawyer. There are other steps that can be taken at this point which include; hiring a privet
investigator, hiring an agency dedicated to acquiring child support, or hiring an attorney to file
contempt charges against the noncustodial parent. None of these options are inexpensive and if the
custodial parent is already not receiving child support they may have run out of options and money
needed to go back to court to file charges.Even if contempt charges are filed, the noncustodial
parent must still be arrested so their last known address must be known. If the noncustodial parent
has moved or cannot be found for them the best that can be hoped for is that they unfortunately get
arrested for something else in the mean time or hope that they decide to start making payments.
Many noncustodial parents think that they are paying too much money for child support and that the
courts were unfair to them. In general the courts will base

The Companies Act, 1956 is the most important legislation in India that gives Central Government
power to regulate the formation, financing, functioning and winding up of companies. The 1956 Act
empowers the Central Government with the right to do the following:
a. Inspect the books of accounts of the company
b. Direct special audits and order investigations into the affairs of the company
c. Launch a prosecution in case of violation of the 1956 Act
The terms merger or amalgamation have not been defined in the 1956 Act, though this voluminous
piece of legislation contains 69 definitions in Section 2. The concept paper recently issued by the
Ministry of Company Affairs, the fate of which is still unknown, contained 100 such definitions but
still stopped short of defining merger or amalgamation. The terms merger and amalgamation are
synonyms and the term 'amalgamation', as per Concise Oxford Dictionary, Tenth Edition, means, 'to
combine or unite to form one organization or structure'.

While overlooking final facts, the board member considered section 83(1) and 83(2) when making

of rent. The outcome of the case was not suprising considering the tenant had been behind six
months in arrears just as Thara has in my case. Since facts are unknown in my case about how the
proceedings occurred at the LTB, sections 83(1) and 83(2) were irrelevant to my case. Although the
final decision would not be the same, I am confident the landlord would successfully argue rent
arrears pursuant to sections 59(1) of the RTA and the LTB member would consider it, and
furthermore make an order for eviction. This decision is helpful to my case also on the probability
of the tenant not apprearing to the hearing. This gives a better opportunity for the landlord as the

This means, the covenant has been provided by the bank in the form of the appplication, while the
debtors need to learn and understand them very well. The downside of this agreement, when viewed
from the debtor's point of view, the debtor is left with a choice of two options accept or reject,
without any possibility to negotiate or bargain with the bank. In this case the debtor can not do
much in the face of the creditor as standard contract has been determined by the bank. The existence
of credit agreement is very important because the function as the basic contarctual relationship

12. Income Withholding Orders Essay
Family law courts in West Virginia, and elsewhere, often issue child support orders for divorcing
couples, as well as those who were never married. The purpose of these orders is to ensure that both
parents bear the financial responsibilities of raising their child. The majority of parents follow
through with these court–ordered obligations. Sometimes, however, a parent may fall behind on his
or her payments.
There are any number of reasons why a parent may fall behind on his or her child support payments.
This includes the loss of a job, a change in earnings or a willful disregard of the order. Regardless of
the reason why a parent has fallen into arrears, there are a number of child support enforcement
options, which may be employed by ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Through such orders, a parent's employer will withhold a portion of his or her earnings. Those
withholdings are then remitted to the state and applied towards their child support obligations.
If a parent is not working, the BCSE will often contact the parent by phone and send letters to
request payment. Should parents still not pay, the BCSE may ask to have them appear in a court
hearing to explain why they are not paying. As a result of such hearings, the court may order parents
to immediately find a job and start paying, award a judgment for the amount of unpaid support or
demand a lump sum payment for unpaid support.
License suspensions
Family law courts, as well as the BCSE, could take action against the driver's licenses of parents
who fail to pay their child support. Under West Virginia state law, this may be done if the amount a
parent owes is equal to, or greater than, the amount owed for six months. These orders are in effect
until the BCSE files a court order with the state's licensing authority that confirms parents have
complied with orders for payment of arrearages and current child support. In addition to a personal

changes to the New York Family Court Act and Domestic Relations Law. This new law specifically
states that "incarceration shall not be a bar to finding a substantial change in circumstances" as long
as the incarceration is not for nonpayment of support, or an offense against the custodial parent or
child. The amendment now allows the courts to modify support orders for incarcerated parents
whenever appropriate, preventing accumulation of uncollectible arrears (Child Support, 2015).
Child support orders prior to October 12, 2010 are subject to incarceration being treated as
"voluntary unemployment" and typically may not be modified. Child support orders after October

such incarceration is not the result of nonpayment of an order of support for child support, or an
offense against the custodial parent or the child who is the subject of the judgment (Child Support,
2015). Additionally, incarcerated offenders can request enrollment in the Arrears Cap Program,

The agency contact DHR Legal to get an opinion on this order. While child support judgement
cannot be discharged; the major question to Legal was did this render the order unenforceable. DHR
Legal stated that if the court had made a factual finding that there was no arrears owed, and then
there would not be any arrears owed. Instead, the court responded to DHR's petition and the CP's
request for an income withholding order. The order stated that the arrears could not be determined
after testimony. The order was silent as to what exactly made the arrears indeterminable, the order
does not state that there would never be a way to determine the arrears in the future with additional
evidence, it does not state the arrears has been satisfied or zeroed, and it does not state the arrears
are unenforceable. DHR Legal quoted from a civil appeals case in which the court had not preserved
the arrears; the Court of Civil Appeals rule that the court did not have to preserve the arrears.
Therefore, at this point, the agency believes the order is valid and enforceable. The order bring back

18. What Happens During A House Repossession Essay
What Happens During a House Repossession
Repossession is always a last case scenario, with most other options generally considered before any
court will give a lender the right to repossess your home. However, it does happen, and if you feel it
might happen to you then you 're probably going to want a little guidance regarding what happens,
when it happens, why it happens and how you can make the process as painless as humanely
possible.
What is Repossession?
Repossession is a legal process in which a lender (the bank more often than not) takes back
ownership of a property because a mortgage, or other loan taken against the property, hasn 't been
paid. Repossession generally occurs as a result of mortgage "arrears," (owed money) which build up
if you don 't or can 't pay off your mortgage at times when your payment is due. Before repossession
proceedings begin, it will be up to your mortgage lender to explore all other avenues available to
help you repay your loan. If they cannot come to an agreement with you, they are free to begin
repossession proceedings. Once the lender has repossessed your home it will almost certainly be
sold on in order to recoup their lost costs.
The Stages of House Repossession
Here, we 'll break down the stages of house repossession step by step in order to give some some
idea of what to expect so you 're not caught off guard and are prepared for every eventuality.

In other words, you're asking will AMEX, Bank of America, and Capital One and these creditors
remove that because you continued to pay them, absolutely not. You have to try and catch those kind
of situations before they charge–off the account. Then there is something called re–aging, where
they bring your account current, even though you didn't pay six months of arrears or five months of
arrears or three months of arrears.
You just start making payments again and as long as you make a few in a row on time, they'll re–
date your account on your credit report so that it doesn't appear as if it's in delinquent. It's being not
delinquent in perpetuity. Once the charge–off occurs, it's not going to be undone. They can't undo it.
So, with that credit damage and your goal of trying to bounce back financially, I typically find that
the best, and this is kind of counter intuitive, the best way to do that or accelerate that is to settle
your debt with your creditors for less than you owe. Making it so that you can get out of debt
quicker. Quicker than you could have in a Chapter 13.
Quicker than you could have now making the payments. And that way, you bring your accounts to a

Australian Residential Tenancies Act 1997 details every aspect of landlord tenant relation and lease
agreement for caravan park site owners. When we study the situation in case study closely, we
notice that in both cases, the tenants may have to involve the court since their situation is tricky and
can be better decided by a court dealing with civil matters. We need to present the law that applies to
the two situations mentioned in the case study. We will also explain what are the steps, that each
tenant can take in their unique situations and how they can involve courts of their province/state. Let
us first discuss the case of Christie: Christie had a lease agreement signed with the caravan owner
Angelo where he mentioned that weekly rent would be $175. At the end of the expiration of the
lease, he decided to increase it to $200 and had the new lease agreement prepared with $200
mentioned as weekly rent. But since Christie couldn't pay higher rent, he asked her to pay $175 but
the lease was never changed. Christie continued to pay $175 and all was good with Angelo.
However Christie has had many loud parties since she moved into the area. The neighbors have
often complained about the loud noises and music. Angelo ignored this situation for some time but
finally took notice and asked Christie to pay the arrears in rent which was the difference between
stated weekly rent and the rent she was paying. Christie is now in a fix since verbally there had been

The final judgment of divorce was in effect May 10, 2011. The agreement attached to the divorce
stated that the custodial parent (CP) was granted sole custody of their child, Nathan Allen Parvin,
date of birth May 29, 2009. The judge ordered the NCP to pay $300.00 a month for support and
maintenance of the minor child to the CP. The said support payments were to begin August 1, 2011.
Jefferson County DHR received materials from Idaho in December 2015 requesting the agency to
enforce the said divorce order. In reviewing the said divorce order, the agency completed a review
of the NCP's balances binding that the order stated the payments were to begin April 2011; the first
payment received and recorded was June 2011. After the review, there were no payments received in
April nor in May, which resulted in the arrears and the interest. The interest accrues on the unpaid
balance. Therefore, for those two months the agency did not receive payments. The remaining
month's payments from not only DHR's records, but also the Alabama Office of Courts, and the
clerk's office were considered. Now, the total balance is $1,041.53, which includes $300.00 due for
the month of October 2106, arrears of $657.84, and interest of $222.15 as of today. The last

24. What Debts Should You Make A Priority?
What Debts Should You Make a Priority?
If you have fallen into debt then chances are you will be in debt for more than one reason and will
have numerous debts to pay to numerous creditors. If this is indeed the case, then just as important
as paying off your debts is making sure you pay them off in the right order, as leaving certain debts
to gather dust whilst you pay off others could result in further legal action, your assets being
repossessed and an ever increasing downward spiral into bankruptcy and depression. Here, we 'll
help you to understand which debts you should be prioritising.
Priority Debts
As the name suggests, a priority debt is any debt that, if left unpaid, could result in serious
consequences. These consequences will depend on the size of the debt and your creditors, but could
include everything from home repossession, your gas and electricity being cut off, bailiffs being
sent to take your belongings from you and even prison! Below, we 'll be taking you through the
most common priority debts and will explain how you should be handling them.
Mortgage – Perhaps the most important debts you should think about paying off ASAP are mortgage
arrears, as, if you don 't pay them, you could end up losing your home to your mortgage lenders if

25. What Is Repossession And What Does It Mean?
What is Repossession?
Repossession is a word that might strike fear into the hearts of many, especially those who are
particularly fond of their material possessions. It is, however, often a last resort that you should
never find yourself falling into as long as you keep on top of your finances. Here, we 'll take you
through exactly what repossession means, why it happens and, in kind, how to avoid it!
What is repossession and what does it mean?
Repossession is a legal process in which a lender (generally the bank) takes back ownership of a
property because a mortgage, or other loan taken against the property, hasn 't been paid. It 's
generally used as a last resort if you, as the owner, cannot continue to fulfil your payment
obligations, which will have been drawn up at the start of your loan agreement. Before repossession
proceedings begin, it will be up to your mortgage lender to explore all other avenues available to
help you repay your loan. If they cannot come to an agreement with you, they are free to begin
repossession proceedings. When discussing repossessions it 's important to understand that, whilst
when you take out a mortgage, you technically own your home, the mortgage lender will have a
financial claim against it until you have paid off the agreed amount. Once the lender has repossessed
your home it will almost certainly be sold on in order to recoup their lost costs. Note that only a

27. Contract Law Consideration
2011–2012 Assessment 1 Nick would be suing Angela claiming the full arrears and the return of the

by Sir Frederick Pollock, approved by Lord Dunedin in Dunlop v Selfridge Ltd [1915] AC 847
where each party must give something in return from what is gained from the other party; 'An act or
forbearance of one party, or the promise thereof, is the price for which the promise of the other is
bought, and the promise thus given for value is enforceable.' The traditional definition in Currie v

...
Certain requirements must be met in order to use this Doctrine being that there must be an existing
contractual obligation between the parties which is clear in Nick and Angela's case being in a 9
month contract, there must be clear and unequivocal terms which here Nick made the promise for
Angela to pay less until fully recovered. The promisee must have altered his/her position to his/her
detriment in reliance therefore it would be in inequitable to go back on the promise but I believe that
Nick could argue here that there was no reliance as Angela is in a better financial situation. It must
be inequitable for the promisor to go back on his promise and it was said in Coombe v Coombe
[1951] 2 KB 215 that the doctrine may only be raised as a defence: 'as a shield and not a sword', this
is applicable for Angela's case. The lottery win by her husband Willy would not have any relevance
in this case as he is not contractually obliged in any way to give Angela money being a third party
husband. It may be argued that Angela is acting with 'dirty hands'. She continued to pay the reduced
rent for a week even though she had recovered from her illness and this may insinuate she was
acting inequitable. Another argument against Angela is that she made a significant financial gain 3
months after paying the reduced amount and she has a duty to Nick to inform him of any change in
circumstances as in the case of With v O'Flanagan [1936] Ch 575. Angela

The mortgagor' target is to redeem the mortgage in full and extinguish the mortgagee of any
proprietary interest. Taking into consideration that the contract agreement of the mortgage was
signed by both parties, the law imposed a legal contractual date of redemption. The legal date was
forced to the mortgagor to pay off the amount owed, which is usually six months. If the mortgagor
does not pay the instalments, the law cannot punish him because it should obviously be an abuse
and unfairness for the borrowers. Any punishment should not be imposed because the equitable
right to redeem exist. Equity has a protective role towards the mortgagor which allows him to
extend the limit of the payment. To balance the interests of both parties for fairness, a mortgage
should not be an opportunity for the mortgagee to gain mortgagor's property. Therefore, Rees has
the right to redeem the mortgage at any time after the legal date. The extension in the redemption of
the mortgage was discovered the maxim 'once a mortgage, always a mortgage', which is valuable
proprietary right.
The equity of redemption represents the total sum of protection of the borrower's rights in the land.
Firstly, the terms of the mortgage cannot exclude the equitable right to redeem, otherwise, it will be
a 'clog' or 'fetter' and it is void. The rights of Rees for redemption is inviolable. The right to redeem
cannot be limited to certain people or a certain time.

31. The Pros And Cons Of Child Support
In situations, when the non–custodial parent who has been ordered to pay child support fails to do
so, the other parent can depend upon federal and state family law to mandate appropriate
enforcement procedures. Parents who are delinquent on their child support are commonly referred to
as "deadbeat parents." The term is typically used to reference state laws created to deal with a
parent's refusal to abide by the court's child support order. These mandates ensure that child support
payments are submitted in a timely manner.
When referencing a parent who has unpaid child support, legal documents will typically refer to the
amount past due as being child support "in arrears." It is not unheard of for states or counties to post

32. How Of A House Repossession
How to Prevent a House Repossession
Whilst receiving a court summons for a home repossession can be one of the most daunting things
that can happen to a homeowner, it doesn 't necessarily mean the game is over. Many believe that, if
they fall behind on their mortgage payments and they are summoned to court for a repossession
hearing, that they are automatically going to lose their home, but this is not always the case. There is
plenty you can still do to keep the wolves (or the bailiffs in this case) from the door.
What can I do to prevent my home from being repossessed?
Obviously, the initial thing would be to always prioritise your mortgage payments above all other
payments to avoid falling into arrears. If you find yourself in financial trouble and feel as if you won
't be able to make your payments on the agreed upon date, don 't be afraid to ask your friends and
family members for help, or, if all else fails, consider taking out a loan elsewhere. This can be a
slippery slope though, so try to keep on top of it! Failing all of that (we 're all only human after all),
the first thing you 'll want to do is gather all the facts from your lender and find out if there are
actually legal grounds for a repossession, or whether they are just trying their luck. If you 've fallen
behind on your mortgage payments and have fallen into arrears, then they probably do have a case
against you, but that doesn 't mean there are no still cards left to play.

33. Building Societies : An Integral Part Of Uk Financial...
Building societies are an integral part of UK financial services, offering mortgages and savings as
their main products. The name 'building society' stems back to the late 1700s when the first society
was formed. Small groups of people pooled their savings to buy land and build houses.
The building societies are the greatest direct competitors to banks for personal customers. The
Building Societies Association (BSA) is the trade association that represents all of the UK's 52
building societies.
A building society is a mutual organisation, which means it is collectively owned by its members.
This means that members have the right to receive information, speak at meetings and vote at an
annual general meeting (AGM) – in other words, they have a say in how the society operates. Every
member has one vote. Each building society has a board of directors, who run the society on behalf
of the members. Anyone who has a savings account or a mortgage with a building society is a
member. Members deposit money into their accounts as savings and the society then uses a
proportion of this money to offer mortgages to other members.
Banks are limited companies. They are listed on the Stock Exchange and owned by shareholders.
The banks' shareholders expect to receive dividends, which are shares of the profits made. Banks
therefore try to maximise their profits in the interests of their shareholders. Building societies
operate in a very different way from banks. Since building societies do

34. Unpaid Child Support
Every child has a right to child support. Child support helps a parent provide for their child's basic
needs. Unfortunately, child support all too often goes unpaid. Unpaid support affects not only the
child but the parent receiving the child support as well. Parents owed child support can take legal
action to enforce their support order. You can do so at any time, even if your child has turned 18.
Enforcing an order can be a difficult process. You may need the help of an experienced Florida child
support enforcement attorney to do so successfully.
Unpaid child support is called child support arrears. The Court Clerk will enter a judgment for this
amount once your payment is 15 days delinquent. The balance will accumulate interest once this is
done. The owing parent will be responsible for the interest as well as the support amount owed.
There are several ways you can enforce a child support order and have your arrears paid.

Mr. Myers' testimony revealed that the Lien Unit seized monies that were in his bank accounts; two
accounts that are separate from his personal account. Mr. Myers stated that those two accounts are
separate because the money in the accounts is not his personal money. One of the accounts was set
up for his mother because of her mental state; he has Power of Attorney over her insurance and her
health. He stated his mother received a settlement from the insurance company because of the
damages done to her house. The check was issued in his mother's name; he put the money in a
separate account titled Renovations. Mr. Myers stated the money in that account is not used for his
expenses; the account has nothing to do with him. He stated that when all of this happened, he spoke
with the Lien Unit and was informed that if the money is his mother's money; the Lien Unit does not
want it. Mr. Myers stated he provided a copy of the check that was written to his mother to open the
Renovations account; that check should bear witness for itself. He stated that the other account that
is separate from his personal account is his business account for construction wiring. The account
shows that the payroll is paid every single week to him and to other individuals when they are
needed or hired. He stated that the rest of the money in that account pays for materials, fuel, etc. to
make the business continue to thrive. Mr. Myers stated his business has suffered exceptionally since

36. The Pros And Cons Of Child Support
In situations, when the non–custodial parent who has been ordered to pay child support fails to do
so, the other parent can depend upon federal and state family law to mandate appropriate
enforcement procedures. Parents who are delinquent on their child support are commonly referred to
as "deadbeat parents." The term is typically used to reference state laws created to deal with a
parent's refusal to abide by the court's child support order. These mandates ensure that child support
payments are submitted in a timely manner.
When referencing a parent who has unpaid child support, legal documents will typically refer to the
amount past due as being child support "in arrears." It is not unheard of for states or counties to post
pictures, names,

37. Dahlgren And Whitehead's Model Of Determinants Of Health
Dahlgren and Whitehead's (1991) model on the determinants of health is also often referred to as the
'rainbow model.' The model aims to identify the various factors that can influence a person's health
status (Hunter, Marks & Smith, 2010).
Porta (as cited in Thurston, 2014), defined a determinant of health as 'any factor that brings about
changes in a health condition or other defined characteristic.'
Dahlgren and Whitehead's (1991) model, as described by Warwick–Booth, Cross and Lowcock
(2012), is made up of a core containing a number of fixed determinants of health, including sex, age
and hereditary factors. The model then consists of four layers surrounding the core. The first layer is
based on individual lifestyle factors, which can include ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
The purpose of the programme was to upgrade existing hostel accommodations to improve the
mental and physical health of homeless people, and to also help reduce the number of people
presenting at Accident and Emergency departments (Gov.uk, 2015).
As stated by Turkington and Watson (2015), in 2000, the Labour Government introduced the Decent
Homes Programme, which aimed to provide a minimum standard of housing conditions to houses in
the public and private sector. The scheme was deemed as a success by a committee and was
commended for providing a positive effect on the living conditions of the vast majority of social
housing tenants. However Turkington and Watson also argued that although nearly three quarters of
homes had met the minimum standards, over a quarter – roughly 6 million homes – had failed to
meet them.
A Parliamentary Office of Science and Technology document published in 2011, found that the
effects of poor housing conditions are costing the NHS around £600 million per year. The document
acknowledged some of the housing related hazards that are contributing to poor health, which
included mould, damp and excess cold. Poor layout and structural defects were also identified as
being a problem, as they can increase the risk of accidents (parliament.uk, 2011).

38. Child Support Case Study
Mr. Ray's testimony revealed that on March 20, 2014, he was ordered to pay child support of
$438.00 per month to the custodial parent (CP), Monique McGraw, beginning April 1, 2014. In an
additional to the $438.00, he was ordered to pay $5,108.00 in retroactive child support for May
2013 to March 2014. He allowed DHR to take the retroactive pay out of his Thrift Savings Plan. He
continued to pay the $438.00 monthly for child support until June 14, 2015, until he received a
judgment for his social security benefits. The CP received $987.00 a month from social security for
the child, Braylen Ray. He is still responsible for paying to DHR $1,226.89 with $357.14 in interest
and $869.75 in arrears. On July 23, 3015, his state tax refund of ... Show more content on

The CSW stated she researched and discovered that there was a hold on Alabama Office of Court
(AOC). AOC had taken funds for three months and was holding the funds; we were not able to
determine why there was a hold. The attorney's office requested AOC to lift the hold and disbursed
the funds. The payments for November 2015, December 2015, and January 2016 were sent to DHR
in the amount of $1,106.20; the payment was never received in February 2016. The NCP needs to
contact Social Security regarding February's payment. The money was applied to the balances that
were owed; $200.00 of the balance was genetic testing, which was not a part of the judgment on the
NCP's court order. There was a balance of $211.67 interest. After the $1,106.20 was applied against
the balance that left an overpayment of $694.53 that was refunded to the NCP. In addition, a lien
was placed on the NCP's retirement check for $145.67, which was refunded to the NCP. DHR has
received no additional payments, everything that had been overpaid has been refunded to the NCP,

Mr. Cava went on to say that the large bills could also be attributed to leaks that customers never
bothered to fix. As such, a poor water system, as well as a poor public attitude towards consumption
of water, can have detrimental effects on the water supply.
Although a few key sources of water degradation have been identified, it is still the role of everyone
to ensure that the earth's water supply is protected and preserved. There are many reasons for this:
water is a necessity for life, it is also a habitat for many creatures. Also, if water is saved now, it will
help to meet future needs, and even money.
First of all, water is indeed a vital part of every living thing. It is needed not only for nutrition, but
also for washing and transportation, among other things. In fact, The World Book Encyclopedia
asserts that human beings use 60,600 litres of water in a lifetime. This equates to roughly 800 litres
a year, or 15 litres per week. Therefore, one can imagine the large demand on water not only by
humans, but by animals and plants, too. This is one major reason why we should engage in the
sustainable use of water resources.
