Baker v. Equity Residential Mgmt., L. L.C.
Baker v. Equity Residential Mgmt., L. L.C.
Opinion of the Court
INTRODUCTION
Plaintiffs Rachelle Baker and Jason Dittmann bring this class action lawsuit against the owner and manager of their former apartment complex ("Walden Park"), Defendants Equity Residential Management, L.L.C. and EQR-Walden Park, LLC (collectively, "Equity"). They claim Equity failed to provide adequate heat and hot water systems and undertook an unnecessarily disruptive construction project to attempt to fix the systems. On behalf of other tenants in the apartment complex, they allege that Equity breached the implied covenant of quiet enjoyment and implied warranty of habitability, was unjustly enriched, and violated Mass. Gen. Laws ch. 93A. Before Equity removed the case to federal court, the state court certified two classes. Equity moves to decertify these classes for failure to satisfy Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 23(b)(3)'s predominance *254requirement. Equity also moves for summary judgment on the quiet enjoyment and Chapter 93A claims.
After hearing, the Court ALLOWS IN PART and DENIES IN PART Equity's motion to decertify (Docket No. 36) and DENIES Equity's motion for summary judgment (Docket No. 38).
FACTUAL BACKGROUND
The following facts are undisputed unless otherwise indicated.
I. Walden Park's Heat and Hot Water Problems
Located in Cambridge, Massachusetts, Walden Park consists of two adjacent buildings (205 Walden Street and 225 Walden Street) with 231 apartments of different sizes and layouts. Equity purchased Walden Park, which was about fifty years old at the time, in late 2011. When it purchased Walden Park, Equity prepared a capital improvement plan of maintenance projects it anticipated completing over a ten-year period. The plan included replacing valves in each apartment to better control the flow of heat and hot water.
Baker and Dittman rented Apartment 1L at 225 Walden Street from April 2011 (a few months before Equity purchased the complex) until March 2016. While they lived at Walden Park, they experienced repeated heat and hot water outages. Between November 2011 and March 2014, they notified Equity at least eighteen times of an issue with heat or hot water. Equity responded to only some of their complaints. Baker and Dittman also made a number of complaints to the Cambridge housing inspector. Because of the heat and hot water issues, they used a space heater provided by Equity for at least a year starting in the fall of 2013 and warmed water on the stove to use to bathe. They never withheld rent, but they managed to negotiate their rent to stay the same each time they renewed their annual lease. They did not move out despite the heat and hot water problems because of the proximity of the apartment to Dittman's work and the expense of moving.
The heat and hot water problems were not limited to Baker and Dittmann's apartment. Between November 2011 and March 2014, Equity received hundreds of complaints from other Walden Park tenants about insufficient heat and hot water. Equity was also cited by the Cambridge housing inspector for failing to provide adequate heat and hot water on at least one occasion.
II. "Admitted Outages" of Heat and/or Hot Water
On forty-six days between April 12, 2012 and April 24, 2014, Equity sent emails to the Walden Park tenants about building-wide utility issues. Twenty-seven of these "admitted outages" concerned issues in both Walden Park buildings, while nineteen involved only 225 Walden Street. These emails referenced many different types of outages. Some outages involved both heat and hot water, others just one or the other (or water more generally). Equity's own maintenance projects caused some of the outages, while others were attributable to failing equipment, emergencies, or factors beyond Equity's control (such as city utility work or a tenant accidentally flipping a switch outside the boiler room). Some emails provided notice of a day-long outage, others of a brief outage. Some explained that an outage may occur, others that an outage already occurred. In one June 2012 email, Equity acknowledged it had shut off the heat in anticipation of the summer but agreed to turn it back on due to the unseasonably cold weather.
*255III. Maintenance Projects
Equity undertook three major maintenance projects at Walden Park. First, from April 2012 through May 2013, Equity converted the boilers from oil to natural gas (the "Conversion Project"). Equity notified its tenants that this project would reduce heat and hot water outages, but an Equity employee testified that the purpose of the project was to save money.
After receiving a number of complaints about the heat during the winter of 2012-2013, Equity commissioned a report from R.W. Sullivan on Walden Park's heating systems. R.W. Sullivan provided Equity with its recommendations for improving the systems on May 13, 2013. Equity immediately began maintenance work to implement some of R.W. Sullivan's recommendations, which continued until the fall (the "Heat System Modification Project").
On July 3, 2014, Equity notified the Walden Park tenants that it was starting a project the following week to replace leaking heat pipe risers in every apartment to improve the heating systems. This "Riser Replacement Project" involved replacing two pipes in the walls of each apartment, but the exact nature of the construction depended on the layout of the apartment. The email explained that contractors would have to open the wall in one or two corners of each apartment to access the pipes and that tenants would have to move their furniture away from these corners. The work would take place in each apartment over five to seven nonconsecutive days. Equity informed the tenants that it would not be able to tell them in advance when the contractors would be working in each apartment. The Riser Replacement Project lasted until September.
During the Riser Replacement Project, a number of tenants contacted Equity about the construction. Some asked about the schedule or requested that contractors finish up quickly or not enter an apartment on a certain day. Others made a wide variety of complaints about the construction. See Dkt. No. 75-3 at 29 (complaining that the contractors twice left his air conditioning unit on after finishing work in his apartment); id. at 42-43 (explaining that the contractors left her apartment dirty multiple times, locked her out, and interfered with her infant's sleeping schedule); id. at 74 (mentioning the thick layer of dust, exposed nails, cracked baseboards, and cockroaches in her apartment).
Plaintiffs' attorneys, who had filed this lawsuit the year prior, contacted Equity about these disruptions. After urging from the state court, Equity agreed to provide a two-week window for each apartment during which the construction would occur, address reasonable objections from tenants to the timeframe provided, and give ongoing construction updates. Plaintiffs allege that Equity did not fulfill these promises.
PROCEDURAL HISTORY
Plaintiffs filed suit against Equity in Middlesex Superior Court on August 15, 2013 on behalf of a class of Walden Park tenants. The complaint raises five causes of action: willful and intentional violation of
Back in state court, Equity moved for partial summary judgment. On August 5, 2016, the state court granted Equity summary judgment on Count I because Equity's communication with its tenants when there were problems belied the notion that its failure to provide heat and hot water was willful or intentional. The state court rejected Equity's argument that Baker and Dittmann could not recover for breach of the implied warranty of habitability because they did not withhold rent. Finally, while the state court recognized that Baker and Dittmann could not receive a double recovery via their unjust enrichment claim, they could continue to pursue this claim as an alternative theory of relief.
Plaintiffs moved for class certification under Massachusetts Rule of Civil Procedure 23 after the close of fact discovery. On June 27, 2017, the state court certified the following two classes:
Conversion Class: "all persons who were tenants occupying either building during the Conversion Project (May 1, 2012 through May 30, 2013), the Heating System Modification Project (July 1, 2013 through December 31, 2013), and/or the Riser Replacement Project (July 7, 2014 through September 30, 2014)"; and
Admitted Outage Class: "all persons who were tenants in either building on any of the 27 dates for which [Equity has] admitted outages, and all persons who were tenants in 225 Walden Street on any of the 19 dates for which [Equity has] admitted outages in that building only."
Dkt. No. 1-4 at 3-4, 9. The court held that Walden Park's 231 apartment units met the numerosity requirement and that the classes satisfied commonality because all the alleged outages affected at least one of the buildings in its entirety. Plaintiffs were typical and adequate class representatives because they were standard occupants of Walden Park and able and willing to represent their fellow tenants. As to predominance and superiority, the court noted that class members may have suffered individualized damages but that liability was based on common questions. For the same reasons, the court certified the classes for their Chapter 93A claim.
On May 30, 2018, Plaintiffs produced an expert report alleging classwide damages of up to $10 million. Based on this report, Equity removed the case to federal court under CAFA for the second time on June 5, 2018. Plaintiffs moved to remand on the basis of untimeliness, arguing that Equity could have figured out that damages exceeded $5 million before receiving their expert report. Baker v. Equity Residential Mgmt., L.L.C.,
Equity filed two motions after the close of expert discovery. Equity seeks decertification of the classes and summary judgment on Count II (implied covenant of quiet enjoyment) and Count V (Chapter 93A).
DISCUSSION
I. Legal Standards
The Court lays out the legal standards for Plaintiffs' substantive causes of action, which are relevant for both the motion to decertify and motion for summary judgment.
A. Implied Covenant of Quiet Enjoyment
Under
A landlord need not act intentionally to interfere with a tenant's right to quiet enjoyment. Al-Ziab,
A landlord who interferes with a tenant's quiet enjoyment is "liable for actual and consequential damages or three month's rent, whichever is greater."
B. Implied Warranty of Habitability
Every residential lease contains an implied warranty that "the premises will be delivered and maintained in a habitable condition." Simon,
Not every violation of the Sanitary Code, however, constitutes a breach of the implied warranty. S. Bos. Elderly Residences, Inc. v. Moynahan,
A tenant who suffers a breach of the implied warranty of habitability is entitled to damages equal to "the difference between the value of the dwelling as warranted ... and the value of the dwelling as it exists in its defective condition." Cruz Mgmt. Co. v. Wideman,
C. Unjust Enrichment
Unjust enrichment provides a cause of action for a plaintiff without an adequate remedy at law. See Santagate v. Tower,
D. Chapter 93A
Under Mass. Gen. Laws ch. 93A, § 2(a), it is unlawful to engage in "[u]nfair methods of competition and unfair or deceptive acts or practices in the conduct of any trade or commerce." As relevant here, a landlord can violate Chapter 93A in two ways. See *259S. Bos. Elderly Residences,
II. Motion to Decertify
Equity moves to decertify both the Conversion Class and the Admitted Outage Class for failure to satisfy the predominance requirement of Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 23(b)(3). Plaintiffs propose modifying the Conversion Class to a new "Riser Replacement Class" and oppose decertification of the Admitted Outage Class. After laying out the Rule 23 and predominance standards, the Court addresses modification of the Conversion Class to the Riser Replacement Class and then decertification of the Admitted Outage Class.
A. Rule 23 and Predominance
"[A] district court may decertify a class if it appears that the requirements of Rule 23 are not in fact met." Mazzei v. Money Store,
To certify a class under Rule 23(b)(3), a court must find, inter alia, "that the questions of law or fact common to class members predominate over any questions affecting only individual members." Fed. R. Civ. P. 23(b)(3). This predominance inquiry "calls upon courts to give careful scrutiny to the relation between common and individual questions in a case." Tyson Foods, Inc. v. Bouaphakeo, --- U.S. ----,
*260A court must also ensure that "any dissimilarity among the claims of class members can be dealt with in a manner that is not 'inefficient or unfair.' " In re Asacol Antitrust Litig.,
Accordingly, a class can satisfy predominance even though its claims raise some individual questions. See Smilow v. Sw. Bell Mobile Sys., Inc.,
B. Riser Replacement Class
Plaintiffs' modified Riser Replacement Class consists of "all persons who were tenants at Walden Park during the period of the Riser Replacement Project, which was July 7, 2014 through September 30, 2014." Relying on Winchester v. O'Brien,
This common evidence is insufficient on its own to prove classwide liability for breach of the covenant of quiet enjoyment. The email notices and McGing's testimony are common evidence that Equity replaced two pipes in the walls of each apartment over five to seven nonconsecutive days. While the purpose and timing of the construction in each apartment may have been identical, this common evidence does not show that the construction constituted a serious interference with each tenant's quiet enjoyment of his or her apartment. The project likely affected each apartment differently based on its layout, how the tenant used the space, and how Equity performed the work. For example, as McGing testified, the nature of the work in each apartment depended on the apartment's layout. If the pipes being replaced were located in a bathroom in one apartment, that tenant would have suffered a *261greater intrusion than a tenant in an apartment in which the pipes were located in the entryway. The project would affect a tenant who worked from home more than a tenant who traveled for work each week. Answering the question of whether the project constituted a serious interference requires individual proof about each tenant, the conditions in his or her apartment, and the work Equity performed in the apartment.
Plaintiffs contend that the set of thirty tenant complaints about the project serves as common proof that the project constituted a serious disruption for all class members. But the varied nature of the complaints confirms that the effect of the construction in each apartment is an individual question. One tenant complained that the contractors left her apartment dirty multiple times, locked her out, and interfered with her infant's sleeping schedule. Another mentioned the thick layer of dust, exposed nails, cracked baseboards, and cockroaches in her apartment. In contrast, a third tenant complained that the contractors twice left his air conditioning unit on after finishing work in his apartment. Other "complaints" simply requested that contractors conduct the work efficiently or not enter an apartment on a certain day. Because of the varied nature of the complaints, the Court cannot reasonably assume that the project interfered identically with each tenant's use of his or her apartment. Instead, the project appears to have affected each apartment in a unique way, some of which may constitute breaches of quiet enjoyment and some of which may not. Answering the individual questions concerning the conditions in each apartment and the tenant's ability to use his or her space would overwhelm any common questions about the nature of the project and Equity's justification for it. There is also no way to adjudicate these individual questions in a way that is both "administrative feasible and protective of [Equity's] Seventh Amendment and due process rights." Asacol,
To the extent Plaintiffs seek to certify the Riser Replacement Class for their three other causes of action, certification is not warranted for the same reasons. Given the variety of complaints about the project, Plaintiffs cannot show via common proof that the project caused uninhabitable conditions in each apartment for their habitability claim. While a thick layer of dust, exposed nails, cracked baseboards, and cockroaches may render an apartment uninhabitable, leaving the air conditioning running does not. Whether Equity was unjustly enriched by a tenant's rent payments also depends on the specific conditions in his or her apartment. The Chapter 93A claim relies on an underlying quiet enjoyment or habitability violation, which they cannot prove via common evidence. The Court cannot certify the Riser Replacement Class for any cause of action because it fails to meet the predominance requirement of Rule 23(b)(3).
C. Admitted Outage Class
As certified by the state court, the Admitted Outage Class consists of "all persons who were tenants in either building on any of the 27 dates for which [Equity has] admitted outages, and all persons who were tenants in 225 Walden Street on any of the 19 dates for which [Equity has] admitted outages in that building only." In its decertification motion, Equity emphasizes that Plaintiffs cannot prove the conditions in each apartment during each "outage," and thus breaches of quiet enjoyment or habitability, using common evidence. Equity also argues that calculating damages requires an individualized assessment that would either compensate uninjured *262tenants or require individual proof for each tenant.
1. Admitted Outage Date Theory
As Equity points out, the forty-six email notices that define the Admitted Outage Class describe a range of outages. Some provide notice of a day-long outage, others of a brief outage. Compare Dkt. No. 68-7 at 10 (explaining that the hot water would be shut down from 8am to 4pm), with id. at 4 ("[T]here will be a brief water shut-down on Friday night between 11PM and Midnight. This shut down should only last a few minutes."). Some explain that an outage may occur, others that an outage already occurred. Compare id. at 25 ("You may experience hot water interruptions from 9:00am to 2:00pm."), with id. at 3 ("[T]oday the water was shut off in both building unexpectedly."). Given the variety of "admitted outages" that define the class, Plaintiffs cannot rely on common evidence to prove a quiet enjoyment violation for each tenant on each "admitted outage" date. Where Equity notified its tenants that an outage might occur, some tenants may have suffered from a loss of heat or hot water while others may not have. For any outage of a few hours or less, an apartment's location in the building, proximity to the boiler systems, the timing of the outage, and other unique factors may affect the heat conditions in the unit. The Court cannot reasonably assume that each outage affected the quiet enjoyment of each tenant similarly. Individual questions about the impact on each tenant would overwhelm common questions.
Although Plaintiffs may not proceed with the Admitted Outage Class as currently defined, the Court need not jettison entirely their theory of liability based on the "admitted outage" dates. The predominance issue disappears for the habitability claim if the class is modified to include only tenants who resided at Walden Park on a day with a not insubstantial outage of heat or hot water in violation of the Sanitary Code. Such an outage likely affected the conditions in each apartment similarly. Because a habitability claim asks only about the conditions in an apartment, not about the tenant's use of the apartment, Plaintiffs can make their case for breach of the implied warranty of habitability for substantial outages using common proof.
The Admitted Outage Class does not satisfy predominance for the quiet enjoyment claim, however. Because a quiet enjoyment claim focuses on a tenant's use and enjoyment of his or her apartment, not just on the conditions in the apartment, even a substantial outage would not affect all tenants similarly. Plaintiffs would need to present important individual proof concerning each tenant's use of his or her apartment on the day in question, which would overwhelm any common questions.
Calculating damages does not create a predominance problem for the Admitted Outage Class's habitability claim. The measure of damages for a habitability violation is the difference between the value of the apartment as warranted and its value in the defective condition. Wideman,
*263Accordingly, Plaintiffs plan to calculate the daily rent for each tenant (from their contract monthly rental rate) and then multiply that daily rent by the number of outage days for which the tenant resided at Walden Park.
Equity assails this method for its unreasonable and unsupported assumption that the fair market value of an apartment on a day in which it does not have heat or hot water is zero. While Equity's criticism is sensible for outage days when the heat or hot water went out for only a few minutes, the Admitted Outage Class as modified covers only days in which the outage was substantial, as determined by a jury. In any event, a substantial heat or hot water outage should reduce the value of the typical apartment by the same amount. The jury will ultimately decide how much to discount the value of the apartments based on the evidence presented at trial. The important point at this stage is that the parties can use common evidence to establish this amount. Furthermore, while the contract rent is not always dispositive of the value of the apartment as warranted, see Haddad,
Equity also argues that the class must be decertified under Comcast Corp. v. Behrend,
2. Systemic Outage Theory
Plaintiffs emphasize that they can prove liability by demonstrating that Equity systematically failed to provide and maintain workable heat and hot water systems in the two Walden Park buildings over a long period of time. This theory of liability represents a cognizable quiet enjoyment claim. A tenant who loses heat and hot water frequently because of faulty systems has suffered a serious interference with his or her use of the apartment. See Abdeljaber v. Gaddoura,
This theory of systemic failure to provide heat and hot water is also actionable as a material breach of the Sanitary Code and thus the implied warranty of habitability. See *264
This theory of liability raises common questions because it focuses on Equity's provision and maintenance of its systems instead of the effect of the outages on conditions in individual apartments. Plaintiffs have numerous complaints from tenants over the course of two years about heat and hot water problems, emails from Equity with notice of heat or hot water outages, testimony from Baker and Dittmann about their experience at Walden Park, and testimony from Equity employees about the failed attempts to fix the systems. Plaintiffs do not need to demonstrate the individual conditions in each apartment if they show that outages were sufficiently frequent to render any apartment uninhabitable or interfere with any tenant's use and enjoyment of his or her apartment. Equity's fault, which is relevant for the quiet enjoyment claim, is also a question for which Plaintiffs can use common proof of Equity's knowledge of the heat and hot water problems and its attempts to fix the systems. Common questions therefore predominate over individual questions for this systemic theory of liability for both the quiet enjoyment and habitability claims.
Plaintiffs assert that they may litigate this theory of liability on behalf of the Admitted Outage Class as currently defined. They argue that identifying the tenants who lived at Walden Park on any "admitted outage" date is a proxy for identifying the tenants injured by the alleged failure to provide and maintain adequate heat and hot water systems. However, a tenant who only lost heat or hot water briefly on one "admitted outage" day of a month-long tenancy has not suffered a breach of quiet enjoyment or habitability from the systemic outage. Plaintiffs have not showed that the heat and hot water systems were out so consistently that a tenant who lived at Walden Park for only short period of time suffered a serious inference with his or her use of the apartment or a material breach of the warranty of habitability. Because short-term tenants may not have suffered from the systemic heat and hot water issues, their individual issues predominate over common issues.
The Court therefore modifies the class to include only tenants who lived at Walden Park for the entire period between April 12, 2012 to April 24, 2014 ("Systemic Outage Class").
Calculation of damages does not pose an obstacle for certification of the Systemic Outage Class for the quiet enjoyment claim. A prevailing tenant is entitled to the greater of his actual and consequential damages or three months' rent. See
A prevailing tenant does not have a comparable statutory damages remedy for a habitability claim and instead must prove actual damages. Each tenant would be entitled to the reduction in value of their apartment due to the faulty heat and hot water systems. The problem for Plaintiffs is that their real estate expert only provided an opinion as to the value of an apartment without heat and hot water for a single specified date. The evidence in the record, however, suggests that the heat and hot water problems did not occur on a daily basis or to the same degree each time. The expert did not render an opinion as to the value of an apartment unit affected by systemic outages. To rely on the expert's opinion, each tenant would need to prove the number of days in which he suffered a substantial loss of heat or hot water in his apartment for specified days. The Admitted Outage Class already represents this theory of damages, and the Court has insufficient evidence to support a common damage theory for a broader class for the habitability claim.
3. Unjust Enrichment and Chapter 93A Claims
Neither party discusses whether continued class certification is appropriate for the unjust enrichment and Chapter 93A claims. The state court expressly certified the Conversion Class and Admitted Outage Class for the Chapter 93A claim but was silent about the unjust enrichment claim.
Determining whether Equity received unjust rent payments from its tenants because it provided apartments that were worth less than the contract rental amount relies, like the habitability claim, on the conditions in each apartment and the value of each apartment in its defective condition. However, because unjust enrichment is only an alternative theory of liability where there is an inadequate remedy at law and the Admitted Outage Class is certified for the habitability claim, the unjust enrichment claim is not viable.
Plaintiffs' theory of liability under Chapter 93A rests on both their quiet enjoyment and habitability claims. See Thomas,
*266D. Conclusion
For the foregoing reasons, the Court decertifies the Conversion Class and declines to modify the class definition to include the Riser Replacement Class. The Court modifies the Admitted Outage Class to the following two classes:
Admitted Outage Class: all persons who were tenants at Walden Park on a day between April 12, 2012 to April 24, 2014 in which there was a heat or hot water outage;
Systemic Outage Class: all persons who were tenants at Walden Park in either building for the period between April 12, 2012 to April 24, 2014.
The Admitted Outage Class is certified for the habitability and Chapter 93A claims. The Systemic Outage Class is certified for the quiet enjoyment and Chapter 93A claims only.
III. Motion for Summary Judgment
Equity's argument for summary judgment on Plaintiffs' quiet enjoyment claim (Count II) rests on a novel theory of statutory interpretation: that the clause in
Allowing Plaintiffs' quiet enjoyment claim to proceed does not render superfluous the clause of § 14 prohibiting "willfully or intentionally fail[ing] to furnish" essential utilities, including heat and hot water. That clause encompasses a brief, but intentional, loss of heat or hot water that would not constitute a serious interference under the quiet enjoyment clause. Equity's argument that Plaintiffs cannot prevail on a quiet enjoyment claim without proving actual or consequential damages is frivolous, as § 14 includes a provision for statutory damages equivalent to three months' rent. See Darmetko,
Equity also moves for summary judgment on Plaintiffs' Chapter 93A claim (Count V). In their complaint, Plaintiffs raise two theories of liability under Chapter 93A. First, they allege that Equity engaged in unfair and deceptive settlement practices. Plaintiffs waived this theory at the hearing. Second, they claim that Equity's breaches of quiet enjoyment and habitability also constitute violations of Chapter 93A. Equity argues that Plaintiffs cannot prove the heat or hot water temperatures in any given "dwelling unit" to make out a violation of the regulations that define an unfair or deceptive act in the landlord-tenant context. See
ORDER
Accordingly, Equity's motion to decertify (Docket No. 36) is ALLOWED IN PART and DENIED IN PART. Equity's motion for summary judgment (Docket No. 38) is DENIED.
SO ORDERED.
One factor courts consider in determining whether a violation of the Sanitary Code is material or substantial is "whether the defects resulted from abnormal conduct or use by the tenant." Casey,
Given the size of the Walden Park buildings (231 apartments) and the fact that tenants typically rent residential apartments for at least one year, this modified class likely satisfies numerosity. See Henderson v. Bank of N.Y. Mellon, N.A.,
If Plaintiffs decide to seek multiple damages for a willful or knowing violation of Chapter 93A, they can do so via common proof of Equity's knowledge of the problems and its subsequent attempts to fix the heat and hot water systems. The state court's decision on Equity's partial motion for summary judgment that Equity did not willfully or intentionally fail to provide heat and hot water to its tenants would not prevent Plaintiffs from seeking multiple damages. Chapter 93A calls for multiple damages when a landlord acts not only willfully but also knowingly or in reckless disregard of the uninhabitable conditions in the rental unit. See Montanez v. Bagg,
In a footnote to its motion for summary judgment, Equity states that the Court's resolution of its motion to decertify may affect subject matter jurisdiction under CAFA. Equity is presumably referring to CAFA's $5 million amount-in-controversy requirement. However, the amount-in-controversy inquiry focuses on the time of removal, and "[e]vents subsequent to removal that reduce the amount in controversy below the jurisdictional minimum do not divest a federal court of jurisdiction."
