Good!
This is precisely why I love America. Because “when and if” the Judicial procedures are conducted with equanimity and consciousness. The outcome can set a hopeful precedent for the: subjugated, the poor and all those trying to cope with skyrocket rents and their rapacious landlords. From a clinical aspect: the statistical figures of people suffering from serious Anxiety and Trauma, due to inability to pay such a sky-high cost of living. Are staggering and worrisome! And something needs to be done NOW.

Stay in San Francisco then because this is not going to happen in San Mateo County.
When will landlords in San Francisco realize that their tenants own the property.
