If you are staying on a privately-owned Traveller/Gypsy site in Amersham, High Wycombe, or Aylesbury, your rights on the property can be determined by many factors, such as the kind of site it is in Buckinghamshire, as well as the provision of security, the relevant licenses and planning permission.
You'd have plenty of rights when you're living on a protected site in Buckinghamshire as compared to the unprotected sites and the best part is that you'd have more protection against eviction in Buckinghamshire when you're staying on a protected site.
If you are staying in an unprotected area in Buckinghamshire, that is, a site that does not have planning permission and a site licence, you will not have a lot of rights in Buckinghamshire, and the owner of the site has the ability to remove you fairly without any difficulty.
As a common law tenant in High Wycombe, Aylesbury, or Amersham, if site owners want to evict you, you have some privileges and some of those rights include four weeks' notice though you may not be able to enforce this right in Buckinghamshire.
Parking up without permission on private land in Buckinghamshire can also lead you to the trouble as the legal owner or the tenant can find out ways to evict you.
In certain cases, the property holder in Buckinghamshire may not be aware of your settlement on their property until the locals start complaining.
You could contact the landowner in Buckinghamshire and discuss your need with them, for instance, if your camp in High Wycombe, Aylesbury, or Amersham is not troubling anyone, and they do not need to make use of the land, they will allow you to stay without any objections.
The Buckinghamshire landowner or the legal tenant may do one of the following:
Apply to the court in Buckinghamshire for an order of prohibition or possession that requires you to move away from the land in Buckinghamshire
Request action from the Buckinghamshire council
Ask the police in Buckinghamshire to do the same
Evict you from Buckinghamshire themselves
The landowner in Buckinghamshire can apply for an eviction order in the sheriff court if the travellers have camped on a private land in High Wycombe, Amersham, or Aylesbury without the owner's permission.
In this case, you will receive a court document called a Summary Cause Summons which will tell you when your case will be heard in court in Buckinghamshire.
If you get a summons, seek advice from your law expert or Denbigh Franks.
The local Citizens Advice can help you get in touch with your solicitor in Buckinghamshire who will assist you.
When they open the case for trial in court, since you are trespassing on the owner's land in Buckinghamshire, you do not have any defence, but the Solicitor can delay your eviction in Buckinghamshire by appealing for delay of your removal on Humanitarian grounds, for example, he might even plead that you have an ill person in your family.
But, if the eviction order is granted, you'll need to move from the land in Buckinghamshire.
An interdict is an order from civil court in High Wycombe, Aylesbury, or Amersham that tells you to stay away from a particular place or not to do something in Buckinghamshire.
If the landowner in Buckinghamshire applies for an interdict, the court will deliver papers to you with instructions of what is to be done.
For instance, you'd receive an interdict from the court ordering you to stay away from the owner's land in Buckinghamshire.
Upon the receipt of this court's documents, you should go to your Solicitor or law centre in Buckinghamshire quickly.
Contact the local Citizens Advice since they can assist you to get in touch with your solicitor in Buckinghamshire.
Your lawyer must have the ability to protect your deeds in court.
Your situation will be evaluated by the court in High Wycombe, Amersham, or Aylesbury before granting an interdict.
For instance, if the interdict is going to cause great hardship to you and your household in Buckinghamshire, the sheriff won't grant the interdict.
If the interdict is granted and you don't adhere to the terms, such as failure to move out of Buckinghamshire, the Buckinghamshire police, if the interdict gives them the such powers, can arrest you.
The travellers would have to face imprisonment and heavy fine if the Buckinghamshire landowner proved that you've broken the terms of the interdict.
If you are encamping on a site which does not have planning permission, the Buckinghamshire Council has the power to evict you from that land in Buckinghamshire and you can also be evicted if Public Health interests are being damaged by your site.
The police can ask you to move as a final resort in High Wycombe, Aylesbury, or Amersham.
If the landowner in Buckinghamshire wants, he/she can evict you out of their land without having an order from the court.
However, you can report the landowner to the police in Buckinghamshire if they injure you in any way, or if they cause any damage to your vehicles or property and they may face charges.
In such cases, ensure to gather sufficient proof to give weight to your claims, and you may choose to take photos or videos of the scene in Buckinghamshire using your mobile phone.
