What civil remedies are available to the landlord King against both Daniels
and Story? What remedies does Story have against both King and Daniels?
Can either King or Story get a temporary restraining order against Daniels to
stop the harassing conduct? Can they get a court order forcing him to move
out of the apartment, either temporarily or permanently? Can King evict
either Story or Daniels and would they have any rights to contest the eviction
or stay in the apartment despite an eviction order?
