Promotional graphic about County Court Judgments (CCJs) and tenant accountability. A wooden desk displays a judge’s gavel, a clipboard labelled “County Court Judgment” with a prominent CCJ stamp, a binder labelled “Rent Arrears,” a model house, and handwritten notes referencing communication, repayment plans, and fair treatment. The headline reads “County Court Judgments: The Closest Thing to a Tenant Accountability System?” with supporting text explaining how CCJs for rent arrears can promote accountability, support responsible tenants, and protect landlords’ investments.
