Tenant wins $1000 compensation over cracked toilet seat in Kensington rental home

A TENANT who sued because a faulty toilet seat drove him potty has been awarded almost $1000 compensation by a tribunal.

But budding actor Riley Nottingham’s rage against the latrine isn’t over — he’s still trying to flush out the landlords to collect his dunny money.

In claims to the Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal, he alleged the toilet seat at the one-bedroom Kensington rental property was so badly cracked it cut skin and drew blood.

Mr Nottingham, 23, said he was so embarrassed by the loo he asked some visitors to use a nearby public toilet.

Good result, bad for stingy landlords.
