Due to the inclement weather, the DC Courts will be operating under a condensed schedule beginning at 2:00 pm. Judicial Officers will determine if court proceedings will continue. Statutory courts will remain operational.
If you are already involved in a non-payment of rent case in Landlord and Tenant, you can file a counterclaim to collect money from your landlord for part or all of the rent that you paid in the past when the apartment or house was in need of repair. You can also collect money to reimburse you for the costs of repairs that you have personally made to the apartment or house.
