Appeals Court of Massachusetts, Worcester.

March 3, 1987.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Nancy E. Rae (Erik Avildsen with her) for the defendant.

Present: GREANEY, C.J., KAPLAN, & ARMSTRONG, JJ.


GREANEY, C.J.

After a trial, a judge of the Worcester County Housing Court concluded that the plaintiffs had not established "cause" (under the standards discussed in Spence v. Gormley, 387 Mass. 258 [1982]) to justify the defendant's eviction from their Green Hill Towers development. We reverse the judgment.

On August 19, 1985, the defendant occupied an apartment under a written lease in the plaintiffs' 185-unit development.
