On October 5, 1983, a hearing was held on Ms. Gilliam’s Tenant Petition. At the hearing, petitioner testified that the primary purpose of the B-P Development Company was to buy and sell rental property, and that he and Bethea owned the property at issue in this case jointly and equally in partnership. Based on this testimony, and other documentary evidence in the record, the hearing examiner found that the property was held in partnership, and as such was not owned by “natural persons” as required by § 45-1516(a)(3)(A). Thus, the hearing examiner concluded that the property was ineligible for the exemption from rent control in § 45-1416(a)(3), and ordered that $13,414 be refunded to Ms. Gilliam because of excessive rent increases implemented between February 1979 and July 1983.
