The opinion

MACK, Senior Judge,

concurring:

For the reason stated by Judge Sullivan, I concur in the disposition of this case. I would add, however, that the District is free to pursue all monetary claims against the tenants in the Civil or Small Claims Divisions of the Superior Court and that the summary nature of possessory proceedings in the Landlord and Tenant Branch makes it ill suited for collecting arrearages on the units vacated (at the instance of the District).
