Business owners at Brixton Plaza were given just four weeks of notice to leave, but this has since been overturned by a High Court injunction. The letter to tenants alleges that the landlord had signed a new lease with Aldi, which would take over Brixton and the Bernard's charity shop. The eviction notices were based on "tenances at will", which can be ended at any time by the landlord or tenant, but legal firm Leigh-Prices.
