Attorney Charles Haws files suit under Pennsylvania Utility Service Tenants Rights Act.
Thirteen cents worth of postage generates a $12,000 late fee and a law suit. Horst Realty manages the Village of Pineford, an apartment complex in Middletown Borough. The Borough provides electric service to the residents of the Borough. Horst Realty failed to place sufficient postage on its September payment of the electric bill, which payment was in excess of $124,000. The payment was received by the Borough four days late.
