the statutory language of 9 V.S.A. § 4458 — tenant may recover — entitles tenants to attorney’s fees where the landlord has breached the warranty of habitability. Courts in other jurisdictions have also determined that the language “tenant may recover” creates a right to elect the relief provided in the statute. See, e.g., Prevatte v.
