Once Petitioner established its prima facie case, it was incumbent on Respondent to demonstrate a viable affirmative defense to defeat Petitioner's claim to possession. The sole affirmative defense Respondent raised in his answer asserts that Petitioner vitiated its termination notice by its subsequent commencement of a nonpayment prior to the vacate date in the nonrenewal notice seeking rent due under the parties' last lease, which was discontinued before entry of a judgment.
