Ben Peoples Prevails in DC’s Court of Appeals

In the case of Williams v. Rajesh & Sadhna, LLC, et al., TT&H Attorney Ben Peoples obtained a recent ruling from the District of Columbia Court of Appeals, affirming the dismissal of the Plaintiff’s claim.  The Plaintiff had alleged that the construction of a patio on a neighboring building enabled individuals to look through a skylight in her property and into her bathroom.  The neighboring building had been constructed pursuant to a valid permit.  The Trial Court dismissed the Complaint because the Plaintiff did not challenge the permit before it was issued.  The Court of Appeals, DC’s highest court, affirmed the dismissal.
