Home Savings Bank of America, FSB v. Camillo

As in Tamter v. Desrochers, ante 234 (1998), an occupant of property sought review in Superior Court of a denial by a District Court judge of the oc*911cupant’s motion to waive an appeal bond pursuant to G. L. c. 239, § 5.

The appeal of the occupant has been dismissed. We reverse that judgment.
