Can I file a claim in the Community Disputes Resolution Tribunals against a neighbour for excessive second-hand smoke?
Yes, this is one example of an act that can come under the CDRA. However, the Claimant bears the legal burden of proving on a balance of probabilities that the cigarette smoke originated from the neighbour and that it is excessive.
