LVT Number: 9528

Tenant asked the court to vacate a stipulation it had previously reached with landlord, claiming that the petition was defective. The court refused, and tenant appealed. The appeals court also refused to vacate the stipulation. Tenant didn't prove the petition was defective, so he didn't show good cause for vacating the agreement.
