Building Directory Errors Are Minor

Tenants complained of a reduction in building-wide services. Among other things, they claimed that the building's directory of tenant names had many errors. The DRA ruled against tenants on that issue, finding that no rent reduction was warranted. Tenants appealed and lost. The directory contained the names of some tenants who had died or moved away. But no tenant complained that his or her name was omitted from the directory. This was a de minimis--that is, minor--condition.
