¶ 5. On July 22, 2016, tenant requested permission to file an interlocutory appeal, arguing the issue of written notice of tenancy termination is a controlling question of law about which there exists a substantial ground for difference of opinion. See V.R.A.P. 5(b)(1) (providing that "superior court must permit an appeal from an interlocutory order or ruling" if order or ruling "involves a controlling question of law about which there exists substantial ground for difference of opinion" and immediate appeal "may materially advance the termination of the litigation"). The court granted permission, citing the two previous contradictory trial court decisions and the lack of caselaw from this Court to guide the trial courts.
