Common confusion points

Confusing 'Possession' with 'Eviction': Possession is the legal right; eviction is the physical act of removing someone.

Not knowing which court to file in: Ensure you select the correct jurisdiction based on where the property is located.

Not understanding Well-Charging Relief: This relates to how debt/charges attached to the land are treated during sale.

Filing without proper service: Submitting it doesn't mean the other side knows about it yet; formal service must occur.

Mistaking this for a simple notice: A Bill requires active court intervention, unlike just serving a document.
