Langley resident Jessica Simpson's $5,000 claim against her strata corporation for a non-working fire alarm dismissed by Civil Resolution Tribunal (CRT).

Langley resident Jessica Simpson's $5,000 claim against her strata corporation for a non-functioning fire alarm has been dismissed by the Civil Resolution Tribunal (CRT). Simpson claimed her strata failed to maintain the fire alarm system, resulting in an "unacceptable risk". However, the CRT ruled that an individual is not entitled to compensation for an increased risk of something bad happening if that risk never materialized. The strata corporation is now seeking for Simpson to pay their legal fees, citing her history of filing CRT disputes.
