A WOMAN has lost her High Court bid to overturn a notice terminating her tenancy of 15 years in a Dublin 4 flat. The stated reason for termination was the landlord intended to sell his interest in the building within three months of termination of the tenancy. A previous termination notice of March 2018, which stated Mr Whelan intended to carry out refurbishment works, was successfully challenged by Ms Stulpinaite before an adjudicator who declared that notice invalid. In his judgment, Mr Justice Barr noted Mr Whelan owns two large properties at Elgin Road – numbers 32 and 34 – which housed about 30 tenants in 2018. As a result of the first termination notice, about 25 tenants had left.
