Defendant's Attorney: Arthur O. Gormley, III

Description: Concord, NH - This commercial landlord-tenant case requires the court to determine whether the landlords violated any legal obligations they owed to the tenant before, during or after eviction proceedings conducted pursuant to New Hampshire law. The defendants[1] evicted the former tenant, plaintiff Martha I.O. Mogaji, from the subject premises in Hudson, New Hampshire after town officials determined that Ms. Mogaji had violated several town land use codes, thereby breaching a provision of the parties' lease. Claiming that her former landlords first failed to assist her in obtaining the necessary local permits, and later refused to allow her to retrieve her belongings from the premises, Ms. Mogaji, appearing pro se, sued the defendants for damages.[2]Ms. Mogaji asserts five causes of action: 1) breach of the lease; 2) interference with business relations; 3) negligence; 4) violation of Mass. Gen. Laws (“MGL”) ch. 91-A; and 5) conversion.[3]

Outcome: "For the reasons stated above, the court finds for the defendant on Counts 1-5 of plaintiff's amended complaint. The court finds for the defendants on their counterclaim, and awards damages in the amount of $5,200. The Clerk shall enter judgment accordingly." Mogaji v. Chan (D. N.H. 2022)
