The Court of Appeals reversed the decision of the lower courts in favor of the petitioners in an unlawful detainer case. It found that the petitioners' complaint lacked the necessary jurisdictional allegations to establish a case for either unlawful detainer or forcible entry. Specifically, it noted the complaint did not allege that the petitioners had prior physical possession of the property or that they had given the private respondents the right to occupy the premises. As such, the Court of Appeals concluded the lower court did not have proper jurisdiction over the case and dismissed the complaint.
