Government crackdown on slumlords

Government of district of columbia has taken a lot of landlords to court seeking to collect rent and make repairs that landlords have failed to make.

A short while ago the district of columbia government sued many landlords who were said to have failed to keep rented apartments in decent repair.  The government wants an order allowing it to collect the rent and use it to pay for repairs.  Case is called something like District of Columbia v. Williams.  I think this is a great step and think it should be an example for other jurisdictions.  Bad landlords can cause many problems to many people and deserve to be called for what they are.
