if someone tries to lodge a restriction on your property which is registered in your sole name, can the registered proprietor be able to find a helpful friend to add as a joint legal owner. Would the transfer into their joint names not be stopped by the form A restriction (as no capital monies arise). So with there now being two registered proprietors, a sale or re-mortgage would not now be stopped by the form A restriction, and any interest under a constructive trust etc would be 'overreached'.

Is it definitely a Form A, I have to admit, I'd go for a Form N to stop this happening.

Why have they gone for a Form A as usually it's for tenants in common to protect both their interests.

It is involved in matrimonial or separation proceedings, ie a former partner not on the register wanted to get their share of equity if sold?

If you're trying to avoid someone getting their share then the court may take a dim view depending on the circumstances especially if the court has been involved to date.

I'm guessing you're looking at adding someone to the register so you can sell without a court order but this is not what the restriction is usually for from what I can see.

Hi Jenna thanks for your reply, yes it is form A and it is an ex partner who is not on the register as he actually transfered the property which was registered in his sole name) to me on the condition I redeemed him of his mortgage, which I did. I then took on a new mortgage in my name and became the sole registered propriotor. He is now, trying to register a unilateral notice and a form A. He is trying to either have he transfer set aside or claim a beneficial interest. When it was transfered into my name on completion his mortgage was discharged and he received a payment of �x which is a fgure we verbally agreed on. He started these land reg proceedings nearly a year after the transfer completed. I did find it on coronchambers site. I am just waiting a land reg tribunal decision to see if he has succeeded or not.
