Case Summary: North 7th Street Associates v. Constante
In North 7th Street Associates v. Constante(2016), the Appellate Division of the Superior Court of California affirmed a summary judgment in favor of the tenant, Guillermo Constante.
The case involved an unlawful detainer action where the landlord sought possession of a rental unit and past-due rent. The court ruled that the rental agreement was void because the premises lacked required permits and a certificate of occupancy, making the unit unlawful.
As a result, the landlord was barred from collecting rent or using unlawful detainer procedures to enforce payment. The court emphasized that statutory requirements for eviction must be strictly followed, including accurate rent amounts in the three-day notice.
Legal representation for the tenant was provided by the Legal Aid Foundation of Los Angeles and Andrew Kazakes.
