Part 3: Recovering Abandoned Premises in England Section 60: Reinstatement
This section sets out the remedies available to a tenant where their tenancy has been brought to an end by a notice under section 57, but they had a good reason for failing to respond to the warning notices. In this circumstance the tenant may apply to the county court, within 6 months of the notice bringing the tenancy to an end, for an order reinstating the tenancy. If the county court finds that the tenant had a good reason for not responding to the warning notices, the court may make any order it thinks fit for the purpose of reinstating the tenancy.
