Chiang v. Heydayian CA1/4
At approximately 1:00 a.m. on New Year’s Day in 2011, a fire broke out in the apartment building at 920 Montgomery Street in San Francisco, where appellants, Hero Chiang and Janeva Chiang, an elderly couple, had resided for more than 16 years. The Chiangs were forced to evacuate and to relocate for a period of 33 months while the building underwent repairs. They later sued respondents Nader Heydayian and Scott Pelichoff, who allegedly owned the building (collectively, “landlords”), and their attorney, Janet Brayer, claiming the landlords were required, after repairing the unit, to reinstate them in it on the same terms and conditions they had previously enjoyed under section 37.9 of San Francisco’s Residential Rent Stabilization and Arbitration Ordinance (Rent Ordinance), and San Francisco Rent Board Rules and Regulations, rule12.19 (Rent Board Rule 12.19).
