Here's what might apply, based on what you told us.

None of this is a legal determination. It's a possible read based on the answers you gave, matched against gov.uk's published grounds guidance — not a court, and not a solicitor. Whether a ground genuinely applies depends on facts and evidence a form can't capture. A solicitor reviews your actual submission before anything is relied on.

Every possession claim also depends on the deposit having been protected correctly, the right notice being served in the right form, and the ground still being true at the court hearing, not just when notice was given. For the official position, see gov.uk.
