Verdict-Plaintiff
$1,800

Two tenants sued their landlords, alleging multiple lease violations and habitability issues in their rental property. The tenants claimed the landlords failed to make necessary repairs and engaged in harassment. The landlords argued that some issues were due to tenant error and that the tenants restricted their access. The case was dismissed for a missed hearing but later reinstated after the tenant explained it was due to a car accident. Following a bench trial, the court awarded the tenants $1,800 in damages.
