Defendant first argues that plaintiff’s failure to raise a material issue of fact as to whether the toilet was clogged entitled the landlord to summary judgment. The landlord’s affidavit admitted that the toilet was clogged and that two repair attempts had been made over a two-week period. The defendant further averred that the tenant informed him the toilet had not been successfully repaired when he moved out on January 15, 1988. The tenant did not respond with an affidavit, but he did not need to. The landlord’s own affidavit demonstrated there was a genuine issue of fact to be resolved about the state of the plumbing. *375 II.
