Judgment text excerpt

The case involves a dispute between a landlord and tenants regarding the recovery of rent arrears and municipal tax claims. The primary legal issue concerns the validity of a notice for arrears of rent and the subsequent claim for increased municipal taxes. The Court examined whether the tenants' continued occupation after the lease expiry constituted a valid ground for eviction or liability for specific rent increments.
