You are obviously confused on the law and what the Benn Act requires. If there is no deal then As long as he “seeks” an extension by writing a letter “in the form” of the one appendixed then he has complied. The Benn Act says nothing about leaving without a deal.

Indeed the Benn act is just an amendment to the withdrawal act, which again says we will leave the EU, not dependent upon achieving a deal. So leaving without a deal is totally lawful
