The court dismissed the tenant's request to reduce the notified rent increase, finding no proof that the new rate exceeded market levels. The tenant argued the increase was excessive, while the landlord maintained the rate reflected current market conditions. The court ruled that without independent market data, the tenant failed to meet the burden of proof required to challenge the increase.
