Can a landlord or tenant take action against a trespasser ?
Yes, but usually this will involve applying for a possession order from the court.
These proceedings are known as a "claim against trespassers" under the Civil Procedure Rules Part 55. This is similar to the standard possession procedure.
It is possible to apply for a quick temporary possession order against a trespasser, known as an "Interim Possession Order" before the final order is made.
