Time for Filing Appeal

Kamerow  v. DC Rental Housing Commision [PDF], 891 A.2nd 253 (2006) - The RHC requirement that a notice of appeal be filed with its office no later than 4:30 p.m. on the last day of the ten-day limitations period in order to be considered timely was not unreasonable or arbitrary.

Flores v. DC Rental Housing Commission [PDF], 547 A.2nd 1000 (1988) - The 30-day period for landlord’s appeal from Rental Housing Commission decision began to run when landlord’s motion for reconsideration was automatically denied by Commission’s failure to rule on motion within 15 days of filing; even granting landlord additional five days because denial occurred out of his presence, petition for review filed 39 days after the denial was untimely.
