Judgment text excerpt
The Court considered an appeal challenging concurrent findings of fact regarding whether the appellants had acquired alternate accommodation in an eviction proceeding. Upon reviewing the records, the Court found no reason to interfere with the lower courts' findings and intended to dismiss the appeal. The Court noted the prolonged duration of the litigation, which had spanned nearly twenty years since the initiation of eviction proceedings in 1980.
