The court of appeal overturned the lower court's decision, acquitting the tenant in a dispute regarding the apartment owners' right to exclude him. The owners argued that installing surveillance cameras on the building facade justified their exclusion, while the tenant maintained his right to privacy and security. The court ruled that the owners failed to demonstrate a legitimate interest in excluding the tenant given the cameras' placement and purpose.
