The Distress for Rent Act 1689[a] (2 Will. & Mar. c. 5) was an act of the Parliament of England. Its long title is "An Act for enabling the Sale of Goods distrained for Rent in case the Rent be not paid in a reasonable time."
The whole act was prospectively repealed by sections 86 and 146 of, and paragraph 1 of schedule 14 to, and Part 4 of schedule 23 to, the Tribunals, Courts and Enforcement Act 2007. This is consequential on the prospective abolition of distress for rent.
