Dispute Over Old Lease Evictions

The article discusses the old rental disputes in Lebanon, where the debate continues between landlords and tenants regarding the implementation of court rulings for eviction following the expiration of the extension periods granted by the 2014 law and its 2017 amendments. Lawyer Maya Jaouara pointed out that the recent rulings requiring tenants—especially the elderly and those with limited income—to vacate their homes come after unrest triggered by the failure to implement the housing assistance fund. This fund has not been funded since its inception, nor have the specialized committees been formed. She explained that the lack of renewal of applications led to the conclusion that the rental relationship ended after nine years, which risks the sudden eviction of longtime tenants without regard for social protections. On his part, lawyer Shirell Shorfan emphasized that landlords' rights have not been taken into account and called for returning to general law to ensure the rights of both landlords and tenants, while also advocating for an end to the current exceptional circumstances, which benefit a limited few at the expense of landlords' rights.
