A housing dispute is destined for mediation this week after a Hartford Superior Court judge handed down one of the largest awards seen in Connecticut for a tenant-landlord dispute.
In a scathing rebuke of a man who worked on behalf of Adar Real Estate, Hartford Superior Court Judge Grant H. Miller Jr. awarded $240,000 to former tenant Roger Chimney after he was told he and his three children temporarily needed to stay elsewhere so exterminators could use chemicals to kill bedbugs and cockroaches. Chimney found almost all of his belongings were gone once he returned.
