Mitchell and Another v Glasgow City Council

House of Lords

“Local housing authority landlords were under no duty to warn a neighbour who had received death threats from an abusive tenant that a meeting had been arranged at which he was warned that he would be evicted unless his behaviour improved, after which the abusive tenant inflicted fatal injuries on his neighbour.”
