Tenant Unions: Legal Rights Of Members, Volodymyr O. Bazarko

Cleveland State Law Review

Various articles have been written about the sociological aspects of tenant unions. This paper will consider, however, only the following tenant union problems: 1. the right of a tenant union to provide an attorney to represent its members in the litigation of personal causes against the landlord; 2. the right of a tenant union, acting as an entity, to bargain collectively with the landlord, sign a contract with him, and then enforce the contract; 3. the right of a tenant union to sue the landlord on behalf of its members.
