Facts: Tenants' dogs barked incessantly, and loud music was played, disturbing neighbors. Ms. Goldmanis's complaints to the landlord (the petitioner) were ignored. A Notice of Claim led to a default judgment against the petitioner for non-response.

Issue: Petitioner challenged the default judgment, claiming landlords aren't liable for tenants' nuisances.

Court's Ruling: The court upheld the judgment, finding the petitioner's argument and research insufficient.

Costs/Damages: $7,500 awarded to each respondent, plus $5,000 to Ms. Goldmanis for distress.
