In its judgement, decided on the 30 July 2021, in the names of
J&C Properties Limited, bearing Maltese company registration
number C 29114 vs. Nazzareno Pulis and Antonia Pulis, the Rural
Leases Control Board (the "Board"),
delivered by Magistrate Dr. Simone Grech, considered an
agricultural landlord's request for the eviction of its tenants
following a decision of the Constitutional Court.
The facts of the case were as follows:
The claimant, J&C Properties Limited, is the owner of an
agricultural field located in the limits of Haz-Zabbar, which field
was being leased to the respondents, Nazzareno and Antonia Pulis.
The lease of the land in question was governed by a lease agreement
between the claimant and the ancestors of the respondents on 3 June
1982, and therefore subject to the pre-1995 rent laws.
