Judgment text excerpt

The case concerns a dispute over the eviction of a tenant from a commercial building that was assigned two separate door numbers by local authorities despite being a single physical unit. The respondent, who was previously a sub-tenant of one part of the property, purchased the entire building and sought eviction of the primary tenant based on rent arrears and bona fide necessity. The legal issue centers on whether the property constituted a single tenancy and the validity of the eviction grounds under rent control laws.
