The majority states that, notwithstanding subdivision (d) of section 1942.5, "landlords must assert their invocation of the Ellis Act `in good faith'" under subdivision (e) of section 1942.5. (Maj. *225 opn., ante, 3 Cal.Rptr.3d at p. 214, 73 P.3d at p. 1193.)[2] The majority interprets the term "good faith" in this context to mean a bona fide intent to withdraw the property from the rental market. (Maj. opn., ante, 3 Cal.Rptr.3d at p. 214, 73 P.3d at p. 1193.) I do not agree that a bona fide intent to withdraw a dwelling from the rental market necessarily establishes that a landlord acts in good faith in attempting to evict a tenant.
