The court dispenses with the usual remand, however, by saying that the tenant has not presented evidence disputing the owner's testimony as to when the owner actually received the tenant's notice. This is another instance in which the court, contrary to the statutory mandate to "favor resolution of ambiguity" in favor of strengthening the tenant's rights, D.C.Code § 42-3405.11, imposes a burden on the tenant to counter an uncorroborated assertion by the owner that is suspect on its face.
