What was argued and what the tribunal found

The appellant did not attend the hearing, was not represented, and provided no evidence. The Valuation Officer had identified the appeal as redundant following a list maintenance exercise after the Supreme Court's judgment in Cardtronics v Sykes. The tribunal dismissed the appeal as the appellant had failed to present any arguable case.

Summary generated from the decision text and checked against it. The appellant was the ratepayer, unrepresented.
