Reed v. Burns,
238 Ill. App. 3d 148 (1st Dist. 1992)
This case was good for Tenants.
The Appellate Court said the landlord's refusal to renew the tenant's
lease WAS retaliatory, and reversed the trial court's finding to the
contrary. Under
RLTO
§
5-12-150, once a
tenant engages in protected conduct like complaining about repairs they
want made, for the next 12 months a landlord's refusal to renew their
lease or to evict the tenant will be PRESUMED retaliatory. The
burden then shifts to the landlord to prove their motive was not
retaliatory.
