Johnson v. Nelson-Rives Realty, Inc.
Opinion of the Court
Landlord Nelson-Rives Realty, Inc. brought this action to dispossess its tenant Johnson because of his failure to pay rent.

Following trial, the court entered judgment granting Nelson-Rives a writ of possession and dismissing Johnson’s counterclaim with prejudice.
Johnson has filed a pro se appeal. His appellate brief consists of the following statements: “My landlord failed to repair the property.
