Complaint: GHP Management Corp v City of Los Angeles – Astronomical Loses Due to Moratorium
Snip from the Complaint…
The Eviction Moratorium, among other things, contains provisions that indefinitely prohibit landlords and property owners from initiating (or continuing to prosecute existing) residential eviction proceedings premised upon the non-payment of rent. Lessors were (and still are) forbidden not only from commencing eviction proceedings for a tenant’s failure to pay contractual rent, but from charging any late fees or interest to which they were entitled. Under the Eviction Moratorium, tenants may continue to occupy their respective premises at no charge, utilizing the water, power, trash, sewage, and other fees that the landlords must continue to pay without reimbursement. By stripping all remedies away from owners — and without requiring tenants to demonstrate an inability to pay rent — the Eviction Moratorium discouraged (and continues to discourage) tenants who can pay all or some of what they owe from doing so.
