In Kavanau I, the Court of Appeal concluded that the 12 percent limit on rent increases deprived Kavanau of “a just and reasonable return” and therefore was unconstitutional. (Kavanau I, supra, 19 Cal.App.4th at p. 736 & fn. 7.) The Court of Appeal directed the superior court to issue a writ of mandate prohibiting application of the 12 percent limit to his rent increase petition. (Id. at pp. 736-737.) We denied the Rent Board’s petition for review. The Rent Board complied with the superior court’s mandate.
