    Abstract

    The case involves a tenant petitioning for correction of violations of the Housing Maintenance Code (HMC). Following a Consent Order to Correct (OTC), the tenant filed an Order to Show Cause (OSC) seeking to restore the matter to the calendar for various relief, including penalties for non-compliance with the OTC. Despite service, the respondent failed to appear, leading to an inquest where the tenant provided evidence of non-compliance with the OTC. The court found the respondent in civil contempt for failing to correct a specific violation, ordering fines and potential incarceration if contempt was not purged within a specified time frame. The decision highlighted the court\u27s authority to penalize disobedience to lawful orders and emphasized the importance of compliance with court mandates in housing maintenance cases
