Synopsis

In a nonpayment case, the court dismissed the landlord's petition without prejudice due to a "defective rent demand" containing a substantial discrepancy in the amount owed, approximately 25%. The court also granted the tenant's motion for an order to correct, compelling the landlord to address issues with the apartment. The decision serves as an example of effective legal strategy by a tenant who successfully moved to both dismiss the case and compel repairs.
