Synopsis
In this nonpayment proceeding, the landlord's claim was dismissed because the tenant did not have a rental agreement at the time the case was filed. The court found that the tenant's obligations only arose after signing a lease in April 2024, making the rent demand defective. As a result, the landlord failed to establish a cause of action, and the case was dismissed.
