Legislator summary

AI generated

The Court of Appeal dismissed the tenant's appeal against the first-instance rejection of his rent reduction claim. The tenant argued for lower rent and a refund of overpayment, but the first court ruled the rent was reasonable. The appeal was rejected because the tenant admitted the actual tenant was a company he controlled, meaning he lacked standing to sue.

A on B:tä vastaan ajamassaan kanteessa Helsingin AO:ssa vaatinut A:n B:ltä suullisella vuokrasopimuksella vuokraaman huoneiston vuokran alentamista ja liikaa maksetun vuokran palauttamista.

AO on tuomiollaan 10.7.1975 hylännyt kanteen, koska vuokra ei olennaisesti ylittänyt kohtuullista käypää vuokraa.

A haki muutosta.

HO: Koska B on muutoksenhakemuksen johdosta antamassaan vastineessa ilmoittanut, että sanotun huoneiston vuokralaisena on ollut nimeltä mainittu A:n määräämisvallassa oleva yhtiö eikä A, ja A on HO:een toimittamassaan lisäkirjelmässä myöntänyt asian, HO kumosi ja poisti AO:n tuomion, koska A ei ollut oikea kantaja jutussa.
