The unsafe conditions at Gladstone Road in Watford were initially identified by the environmental health team at Watford Borough Council in October last year following a complaint about the state of the property. Just 24 hours later, police were called to address a dispute between Browne and an occupant. Following the disagreement, the landlord illegally evicted the tenant. Council officers attempted to resolve the situation, but Browne refused to oblige. He failed to produce tenancy agreements, rent records and other documents needed for the council's investigation, leaving them with no alternative but to take legal action.
