What Happened: With the HVAC system on the fritz, the heat inside the office building became so intense that a tenant’s employee passed out and had to be sent to a hospital, resulting in an OSHA heat stress complaint. At least that’s what the tenant argued. The landlord contended that it was working on the HVAC and that the tenant was exaggerating how stifling the heat was as an excuse for not paying rent.
Ruling: The New Hampshire federal court denied the landlord’s motion for summary judgment.
