. This court’s decision in Harris v. District of Columbia Rental Housing Commission, 505 A.2d 66 (D.C.1986), does not compel a contrary conclusion. In Harris, there was no evidence that the landlord sought to implement increases in the rent ceiling pending the intra-agency appeal. Moreover, the record was "barren of any suggestion that [the landlord] at any time complained of the pace of the proceedings or sought ... relief from the delay. Id. at 71. Here, it appears that Temple attempted to have the agency establish the lawful rent ceilings of the Lob-senz’ units but met with no response. Furthermore, it appears that he vigorously complained of the pace of the proceedings after the February 1984 RHC hearing.
