Synopsis

In this non-payment proceeding, the court granted the tenant's motion seeking an order for the petitioner to correct a class "C" violation due to roach infestation in the subject apartment. Despite the petitioner's opposition, the court found the respondent's evidence credible and unrefuted, establishing the existence of a severe roach infestation. The court ordered the petitioner to abate the violation within 21 days and comply with all relevant laws and codes. The respondent was directed to provide reasonable access for the correction process, and default could lead to further legal actions, including contempt or civil penalties.
