¶4 Because of an earlier dispute, Tenants believed that Landlords’ stated reason was a pretext.1 Id. Tenants thus began researching Faciszewski’s parents on the Internet. Tenants learned the following facts regarding Faciszewski’s mother: (1) she owned a home in Colorado that was not listed for sale or for rent, id. at 46, 82-83; (2) she was scheduled to teach a class at a Colorado center in the fall, id. at 46, 72-73; (3) she volunteered at a Colorado hospital for many years and continued to do so, id. at 80-81; and (4) she had not informed the center or the hospital of any plans to move, id. at 46, 80-81. Citing this information, Tenants complained to the City, and in response, Landlords filed with the City a certification of intent to carry out the stated reason. Because the certification provided that “[Faciszew-ski] or/and ... his mother” would occupy the property, id. at *31277 (emphasis added), Tenants continued to believe Landlords’ stated reason was a pretext. Accordingly, Tenants refused to comply with the notice of eviction.
