Dublin Landlord's Eviction Fails | Dublin News

A Dublin landlord tried to evict her tenants with a bizarre excuse: she needed the apartment for her daughter’s after-school hangout and as a traffic escape route, even claiming she’d crash there during rush hour. But the tribunal called it bogus — sporadic use doesn’t count as a “bona fide requirement.” Meanwhile, the tenants fought back, pointing out the eviction notice had their names wrong (“Patrick O’Connor” and “Krystian Krystia”) and they never received or signed for it. They also admitted to owing $11,000 in rent but claimed they stopped paying due to water and power outages — which the tribunal said should’ve been resolved through RTB, not ignored. The eviction was thrown out, but the rent debt? Still owed. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
