Monroe Housing Authority v. Coleman.1 PHA attempted to evict tenant for lease violations or other good cause and claimed tenant’s lease had expired. Eviction was denied because supposedly expired lease was not entered into evidence and there was no evidence tenant had been offered a renewal of the lease and failed to sign.
Housing Authority of Sabine Parish v. Lynch.2 Court upheld a denial of eviction where tenant made angry statements to PHA employee—but did not threaten the employee—and refused one re-inspection—but allowed another. Further, the tenant refused to sign lease renewal documents because he was suspicious as a result of the PHA’s efforts to evict him; nothing showed that he was not eligible to renew.
