Actual Occupation

The case concerned whether a person was “in actual occupation” of registered land pursuant to the Land Registration Act 2002 plus so had an overriding attention which might defeat a lender's claim for possession.

Both parties to the litigation were blameless parties duped by a third party, but which party was going to overlook out; either the claimant who endured from Korsakoff's Psychosis, a critical health status which influenced her comprehending, recollection, insight, cognitive abilities and judgment or the defendant, a lending institution. 

The claimant had been swindled into parting with her property plus the lender had granted a charge over the property.  The examination of the property by the lender was a “drive-by” inspection by a surveyor, who noted signs of occupation.

As the Court of Appeal documented, some of the facts sharp to Ms Bustard's extending actual occupation:  it was her furnished dwelling and the only location to which she authentically liked to return; she proceeded to visit the house because she still advised it her home; those who had taken responsibility for her investments frequently paid the bills.  On the other hand when the lender's ascribe was taken she had been in a residential dwelling for over a year; she was incapable of dwelling safely in the house and her visits to the house were short and supervised.

The court determined that the first example conclusion that Ms Bustard was a individual in actual occupation should not be disturbed.  It was not a meagre fleeting presence.  There was a adequate stage of continuity and permanence of occupation, of involuntary house in another location, and of a continual aim to come back dwelling when likely, as manifested by her normal visits to the property.

 The case presents farther significance to the sign “in actual occupation” whereas conspicuously the facts of this case were odd and such a position is probable to be uncommon in practice.
