Adverse land possession application

Hi

just seeing if you can help here. A property we are purchasing is at a big risk of falling through due to delays in completion of the adverse land possession claim. The property is 39 Redhill court Barnsley s751hf. The mortgage offer we have on the house which has already been extended expires next Friday, however the buyer of my current property needs confirmation today that things will be completed with land registry so they have time to complete the process for the house completion by next Friday. So it already looks like we are going to miss the mortgage expiration date. The main issue is the risk to the chain as I fear it will fully collapse which is causing a great deal of stress. 

the application has already been expedited with LR. Please could you tell me if the application is in process, and any potential rough time frames just so I can manage the chains expectations here. Also if you can produce this information has there been any issues or objections to the land claim? This information will help everyone in the chain and reduce The risk of collapse.

kind regards

Hi Jonathan - the application is still with us as there is ongoing correspondence with affected parties, notably from the Council. That remains outstanding and the case is with our lawyers to consider next steps. 
I can flag it with the casework team re the additional urgency but please do rely on the conveyancers involved to manage expectations re both the chain and the mortgage offer expiry
