Counsel for Ms. Bridges did not refer to the retaliation defense in opening statement. Nor did Ms. Bridges refer explicitly to the retaliation defense during her trial testimony. Ms. Bridges did testify, however, that on September 22, 2009, and March 8, 2010, she filed written complaints with the D.C. Housing Authority concerning ongoing housing violations. Both written complaints were admitted into evidence. The trial court subsequently took judicial notice of the fact that the complaint in this case was filed by Mr. Clark on March 19, 2010.
