In Simpson v. Jack Spicer Real Estate, Inc., 396 A.2d 212 (D.C.1978) (per curiam), we held that District of Columbia statutory eviction restrictions[1] did not protect a property owner who defaulted on a mortgage (deed of trust) and continued to live in his former home after it was sold at foreclosure. This case presents the question whether those restrictions protect the tenant of a defaulting mortgagor who remains in her previously rented apartment after a foreclosure sale. We hold that they do.[2]
