What is the Strata Appeals Tribunal?
The Strata Appeals Tribunal was established to provide a ‘legal’ framework to deal with the issues surrounding strata corporations. They may hear appeals from either the corporation or the proprietor regarding a decision of the Commission. An Order made by the Strata Appeals Tribunal is lodged with the Clerk of Courts and is treated as if it were an Order made by the Parish Court.
The Commission is the sole administrator of the Tribunal; meaning it assists in scheduling hearings and filing its records, however it is a separate body from the Commission.
