Served Summons & Complaint by the Health Department

[Teresa Humphreys]

Has anyone been sued by the Health Department?  I was just served with a Summons & Complaint and ordered to attend a Hearing.  The prior tenant had contacted the HD without even notifying the property management company until we began getting notices. The PM team, immediately started making the list of required repairs, but each time the HD would return to the property, they would discover new "violations" such as a lightbulb being out (I'm not kidding).  We have an entire file of repair receipts, records, photographs of all the repairs that have been completed at the property.  From reading the Complaint they want to fine me 2500 and issue an injunction.
