Lower Court Didn't Miscalculate Amount Owed

February 1, 1998

LVT Number: 12100

Landlord sued to evict tenant for nonpayment of rent. The court ruled for landlord, and tenant appealed, claiming that the court miscalculated the amount of back rent owed. The appeals court ruled against tenant. Both landlord's rent ledger and tenant's document showed that only nine rent payments were actually made in 1995.
