The court unanimously rejected the tenant's initial petition for eviction and rent arrears due to a fundamental incompatibility between the claims. The plaintiff sought to terminate the lease contract based on unpaid rent while simultaneously requesting interest on those same overdue payments. The tribunal ruled that these two requests cannot be substantively cumulated in a single action, rendering the initial petition inadmissible.

SUMÁRIO

I - Há incompatibilidade substancial entre os pedidos de resolução de contrato de arrendamento com o fundamento na falta de pagamento de rendas e o pedido de juros sobre as rendas vencidas.

II - Deve, pois, ser indeferidor liminarmente a petição inicial em que se cumulem tais pedidos.
