Preliminary Statement
GHIs opposition 1 completely ignores the admissions of Mr. Popovic
and GHIs witnesses:
There is no risk-free level of exposure to tobacco smoke and evenbrief exposures to secondhand smoke has adverse consequences for theheart, blood and blood vessels. See 2010 Surgeon Generals Report atForward, and 2006 Surgeon Generals Report at page 64. 2
Secondhand smoke causes cancer. [Mr. Popovic, E. 1294].
Secondhand smoke is disturbing to non-smokers. [GHIs expert, Dr.Gots, E. 1028].
It is widely understood that secondhand smoke is dangerous andthe health effects of secondhand smoke are absolutely documented.[GHIs President, E. 1172, 1205]. [GHIs Member Complaints PanelChairperson, E. 1074, 1092].
Secondhand smoke is annoying to Mr. Schuman. [Mr. Popovic, E.1269].
Mr. Schuman suffered damages from his exposure to secondhand
smoke. [Mr. Popovic, E. 1271-72]. It may be unpleasant to live next-door to a smoker. [GHIs expert, Dr.Gots, E. 1031].
Secondhand smoke is irritating and malodorous. [GHIs GeneralManager, E. 608].

Mr. Popovic failed to file any brief in opposition to Mr. Schumansbrief. Mrs. Popovic, who suffered from a brain tumor that prevented her from attending any of the proceedings in the Circuit Court, passed awayafter the trial in this matter.
2 The Circuit Court took judicial notice of the Surgeon Generalsreports on secondhand smoke published in 2006 and 2010.

Secondhand smoke migrated from the inside of the Popovics homeinto Mr. Schumans home (Anybody who lives in GHI housing knows thatsound and smell travel through the walls.). [GHIs Member ComplaintsPanel Chairperson, E. 1074]. [GHIs President, E. 1172]. [Mr. Popovic, E.1266].
Mr. Popovic currently smokes on his patio. [Mr. Popovic, E. 1267-68].
The right of smokers to smoke ends when their behavior affects thehealth and well-being of others. [GHIs General Manager, E. 618].
GHI has the power to discipline members who play their music tooloud or allow their grass to grow too high. [GHIs General Manager, E. 605].
GHIs Factual Assertions to Which a Reply is Required3
1. GHI Statement : Mr. Schumans complaints from the 1990s aboutsecondhand smoke were resolved and Mr. Schuman did not complainabout secondhand smoke again until 2009. [p. 4].
Mr. Schumans Reply : Mr. Schumans complaints about the Popovics
smoking were not resolved due to GHI caulking and sealing holes between
the Schuman and Popovic homes, but rather, the problem went awaybecause there wasnt as much smoking during this time. [E. 409].
2. GHI Statement : Mr. Schumans extensive renovations allowedsecondhand smoke to enter his unit. [p. 4-5].
Mr. Schumans Reply : Mr. Schuman testified that problems with the
Popovics smoking returned in 2007 (before renovations began) and
seemed to come on pretty suddenly. [E. 399-401]. Further, the contractor
sealed [e]verywhere theres a hole and believed that there was nothing he

could do to further seal the unit. [E. 205]. GHI inspected and approved
these renovations and never indicated that it had any problems with this
work. [E. 206].
3. GHI Statement : GHI complied with the dispute-resolutionprocess in an attempt to facilitate and resolve disputes and encouragemembers to reach an agreement on their own. [p. 5-6].
Mr. Schumans Reply : The purpose of GHIs Member Complaints
Procedures is to resolve complaints against members. [E. 1584]. While
many complaints can be resolved informally, there are times when the
complaints must be resolved formally. In such situations, GHIs Board has
the power to hold a formal hearing, and, after this hearing, dismiss the
case, allow the member to correct the matter, terminate the members
contract or file for judicial relief. [E. 1586-88]. Instead of taking action to
decide the case, GHI took no action at all.
4. GHI Statement : During GHIs Member Complaints Panel hearing,[i]t was clear that Mr. Schuman was unwilling to tolerate any level of secondhand smoke. [p. 7].
Mr. Schumans Reply : The Surgeon General found that [t]here is no
risk-free level of exposure to tobacco smoke and even brief exposures to
secondhand smoke have adverse consequences for the heart, blood and
blood vessels. See 2010 Report at Forward, and 2006 Report at page 64.
Thus, Mr. Schuman was justified in his unwillingness to tolerate any level of
secondhand smoke.
5. GHI Statement : Looking at this dispute in the larger context of the
7/31/2019 Schuman v. Greenbelt Homes - Appellant's Reply Brief
7/37
4
GHI community, the Board considered the members attitudes aboutsmoking and determined that the membership, as a whole, was prettycontent with the status quo. [p. 9].
Mr. Schumans Reply : GHI never referred this issue to the membership
for its input and failed to acknowledge that there might be members
interested in a smokefree environment. After trial in this matter, GHIs
members voted to direct the Board of Directors to develop a proposal for
consideration by the membership that would allow members of an entire row
of units to unanimously agree to revise their Mutual Ownership Contracts to
indicate that smoking inside these units is not allowed. See
http://ghi.coop/content/special-committee-reviewing-implications-establishing
-non-smoking-rows-units-0. Additionally, the University of Maryland Board
of Regents recently approved a policy banning outdoor smoking on its
campuses, including the College Park campus where over the years, many
GHI residents have attended. See http://www.diamondbackonline.com
/news/smoking-to-be-banned-on-all-usm-campuses1.2880464#.
UAcjro76TTR. These actions are at odds with GHIs statement that its
members were content with the status quo.
6. GHI Statement : The Board informed Mr. Schuman that there wasnothing more they could do and encouraged the parties to work together toresolve the dispute [but] [a]t this point, Mr. Schuman had several options,including the ability to place his complaint on the agenda of the membershipmeeting, to petition for a special meeting, or to [request] a special meeting.[p. 10].
Mr. Schumans Reply : This statement is at odds with GHIs Presidents

letter to Mr. Schuman announcing the decision of the Member Complaints
Panel in which she stated, there appears to be nothing further that GHI
can do to resolve the problem . [E. 1635]. [emphasis added]. If Mr.
Schuman had other options as GHI claims today, it did not notify Mr.
Schuman of these options. Moreover, considering the fact that, by contract,
Mr. Schuman and GHI have a landlord-tenant relationship, Mr. Schuman did
not need to petition his fellow members to change any policy (which would
be the point of bringing an issue to the membership) in order to force GHI
to require Mr. Popovic to comply with GHIs nuisance clause.
7. GHI Statement : By the time of trial, Mr. Popovics smoking haddecreased to the point where for the past several months he smoked nomore than two cigarettes each evening outside. [p. 10-11].
Mr. Schumans Reply : The full quote about Mr. Popovics current patio
smoking states Im smoking one, two, three, cigarettes in [the] last couple of
months. [E. 1259]. Mr. Popovic admits that it takes him 5-6 minutes to
smoke each cigarette outside on his patio. [E. 1265-67]. Mr. Schuman
testified that he cannot just close his windows when he smells Mr. Popovics
smoke because smoke is already inside by the time he smells the smoke.
[E. 1323]. Mr. Popovics other next-door neighbor, Ms. Ipolito, testified that
she must shut her windows and refrain from using her screened-in porch
due to Mr. Popovics patio smoking, and this makes her feel like a captive in
[her] own house while he gets to sit out on the porch. [E. 312-13].
8. GHI Statement : Mr. Schumans secondhand smoke expert [James
7/31/2019 Schuman v. Greenbelt Homes - Appellant's Reply Brief
9/37

Repace, MSc.] reported that when no one was smoking outside, the air inMr. Schumans unit had median PPAH levels of 1 nanogram per cubic meter in the living room, and 1.5 nanograms per cubic meter in the dining roomand when Mr. Popovic was smoking [on his patio], the median PPAH levelsincreased to 2 nanograms per cubic meter in the living room and 3nanograms per cubic meter in the dining room but also measured PPAHsof 2 nanograms per cubic meter in the non-smoking courtroom of a non-smoking courthouse. [p. 13-14].
Mr. Schumans Reply : In rebuttal, Mr. Repace testified in response to the
question, Can you explain how your findings indicate that Mr. Schuman was
exposed to secondhand smoke in his unit despite having the same reading
at some point when you turned on the machine here in this Courtroom?:
Yes, the background levels in this Courtroom are dependenton the background levels from outdoors because the air ispulled into the building from outdoors; has a lot of diesel busesrunning around, and what I saw in my measurements in Mr.Schumans unit from Mr. Popovics outdoor smoking wasan increase doubling of the level of carcinogens in bothhis dining room and his living room , and the levels weredifferent. They were higher in the dining room, which is closer
to Mr. Popovic, and lower in the living room. The absolutevalue of the carcinogen levels was not what was important. Itwas the fact that the relative values changed, which were avery strong indication that Mr. Popovics indication that Mr.Popovics smoke was entering into the Schuman residence,and also, I detected with my nose, my eyes, the irritation andodor of secondhand smoke during the period when Mr.Popovic was smoking, and when he was not, I did not; so, itwas a clear indication that smoke was coming in objectively.[E. 1343-44]. [emphasis added].
GHIs Argumentative Assertions to Which a Reply is Required
1. GHI Statements : Mr. Schuman fails to show (or even argue) howor why the Circuit Court erred, either factually or legally; he merely statesthat he disagrees with the Circuit Courts decision. Nowhere does Mr.Schuman show that Judge Northrop applied the wrong legal standard or decided any facts incorrectly. [p. 15].

Mr. Schumans Reply : As an appeal of a bench trial decision, the
standard of review in the instant case is the clearly erroneous standard. In
Anderson v. Joseph, 200 Md. App. 240, 248 (2011), the court found that
When an action is tried without a jury, the appellate court willreview the case on both the law and the evidence. It will notset aside the judgment of the trial court on the evidenceunless clearly erroneous, and will give due regard to theopportunity of the trial court to judge the credibility of thewitnesses. A factual finding is clearly erroneous if there is nocompetent and material evidence in the record to support it.When the ruling of a trial court requires the interpretation and
application of Maryland case law," however, we give nodeference to its conclusions of law. [citations omitted].
Mr. Schuman believes that the Circuit Courts decision was clearly
erroneous because the central facts of the case are undisputed (e.g.
secondhand smoke is dangerous as well as annoying and secondhand
smoke from the Popovics property migrated onto and into Mr. Schumans
property), yet the Circuit Court made conclusions of law that disregarded
these undisputed facts and ignored Maryland case law concerning
nuisances and breaches of contracts in landlord/tenant matters when it
entered judgment for Mr. Popovic and GHI. If the parties were in agreement
that secondhand smoke is harmful and annoying, that it entered Mr.
Schumans property, and that Mr. Schuman suffered physical effects from
the secondhand smoke, then the Circuit Courts decision that the Popovics
smoking did not violate GHIs nuisance clause was without any factual basis.
Despite the Surgeon Generals finding that there is no safe level for
7/31/2019 Schuman v. Greenbelt Homes - Appellant's Reply Brief
11/37
8
secondhand smoke, the Circuit Courts decision could be read as
establishing that there is a safe level for exposure to secondhand smoke in a
multi-unit dwelling. In its decision, the Circuit Court stated
The legislature has looked at this, both state and federal.Theres no smoking in restaurants in the State of Maryland.You cannot smoke on an airplane. You cant smoke in thecourthouse. I mentioned that a few moments ago.
This is a legislative decision. The legislatures looked atsecondhand smoke. Theyve looked at that issue, and theyvemade a determination, and they have chosen, at least up tothis point, not to ban secondhand smoke generally or all
smoking or to limit it to certain smoking areas.
We hear about activist courts. Im not going to take a positionone way or the other as to whether Im activist or not, but I dobelieve and Ill tell you right now that I think if this decision is tobe made, it is a decision, in my view, thats going to have to bemade by the legislature. [E. 1431-32].
The Circuit Courts refusal to decide the issue because [t]his is a legislative
decision, is clearly an error of law that this Honorable Court may review andis a finding that should be reversed because the Circuit Court has the duty to
decide cases and controversies presented to it and not shirk its
responsibility under the theory that the General Assembly has the power to
legislate a decision. Oddly enough, the Circuit Court permanently enjoined
Mr. Popovic, albeit with his consent, from smoking inside his house, yet
failed to award any monetary damages to Mr. Schuman. Surely, the Circuit
Court could not enter a permanent injunction, even with the consent of the
parties, unless there was a legal basis for doing so, and if there was a legal
7/31/2019 Schuman v. Greenbelt Homes - Appellant's Reply Brief
12/37
9
basis for doing so, it follows that Mr. Schuman is entitled to monetary
damages.
2. GHI Statement : The Circuit Court did not err in finding that Mr.Schuman failed to meet his burden of establishing a claim for breach of theimplied covenant of quiet enjoyment because [o]ccasional secondhandsmoke in a multi-family residential community is an inconvenience[] [and]disturbance[] that [is] inherent in living in an apartment. [p. 16-17].
Mr. Schumans Reply : In Gorman v. Sabo, 210 Md. 155, 159 (1956), the
court found that [i]f noise causes physical discomfort and annoyance to
those of ordinary sensibilities, tastes and habits and seriously interferes with
the ordinary comfort and enjoyment of their homes, and thus diminishes the
value of the use of their property rights, it constitutes a private nuisance,
entitling those offended against to damages. GHIs allegation that
[o]ccasional secondhand smoke in a multi-family residential community is
an inconvenience[] [and] disturbance[] that [is] inherent in living in an
apartment has no basis in Maryland law because if noise may be the basis
of a nuisance claim, certainly an admittedly hazardous gas, such as
secondhand smoke, that causes physical damage to those who are forced
to breathe it may be the basis of such a claim. Moreover, Mr. Popovics
smoking was not occasional, as alleged by GHI, but occurred every single
day. Thus, Mr. Schuman was exposed to the harmful chemicals present in
secondhand smoke every single day, and this was not the type of
inconvenience or disturbance that is inherent in living in an apartment.
3. GHI Statements : GHI did not deprive Mr. Schuman of the
7/31/2019 Schuman v. Greenbelt Homes - Appellant's Reply Brief
13/37
10
essence of his agreement because Mr. Schuman did not bargain to be freeof exposure [from] secondhand smoke and GHI had no obligation to protecthim from such exposure. GHIs Mutual Ownership Contract did notexpressly authorize or require GHI to take action against smokers. There isno provision allowing GHI to control the smoking habits of the people livingin any of its 1600 units. [p. 17-19].
Mr. Schumans Reply : While GHIs Mutual Ownership Contract did not
specifically mention secondhand smoke, the language of this contract clearly
encompassed secondhand smoke as a nuisance since it is objectionable
conduct that annoys, inconveniences and damages the smokers
neighbors. [E. 1604]. In moving into GHI, Mr. Schuman had the reasonable
expectation that GHI would use its power under the associations governing
documents to stop other members from committing acts that violate the
Mutual Ownership Contract. See Green v. Greenbelt Homes, Inc., 232 Md.
496, 500-04 (1963); Village Green Mutual Homes, Inc. v. Randolph, 362
Md. 179, 183 (2000). Moreover, GHIs claims that it was powerless to stopMr. Popovic from smoking is at odds with the decision in Green (a case in
which GHI was a party) since that court found that GHIs MOC contained
restrictions on the use of the cooperative dwelling unit which gave the
corporation the right to terminate the contract in the event of the members
breach. Id. at 504.
4. GHI Statement : Cases from other jurisdictions support the CircuitCourts findings. [p. 19-20].
Mr. Schumans Reply : In McDaniel v. Strata Plan LMS, 1657 (Number
2), 2012 BCHRT 167, a decision issued by the British Columbia (Canada)
7/31/2019 Schuman v. Greenbelt Homes - Appellant's Reply Brief

Human Rights Tribunal on May 14, 2012, the McDaniels filed a claim against
their strata corporation 4 due to its failure to prevent secondhand smoke
from migrating into their home from the patios and decks of three of their
neighbors homes. 5 Id. at 1-2. The strata corporation suggested that the
McDaniels buy an air conditioner and attempt to obtain the support of other
residents to enact a no smoking bylaw. Id. at 7. The tribunal also found
that the strata corporation recognized the problems faced by the McDaniels,
but was uncertain about what it could do to assist them and sought to
strike a balance between what the McDaniels wanted and what others in the
building wanted since the bylaws do not specifically prohibit smoking,
although the bylaws prevent nuisances, hazards, and any act that
unreasonably interferes with the rights of other persons to use and enjoy
the common property, common assets or another strata lot. Id. In
analyzing the evidence, the tribunal noted the McDaniels smoke fume log
that fastidiously documents at least 175 incidents of smoke infiltration, often
on multiple occasions daily. Id. at 9. The tribunal found that the strata
corporation never opted to enforce its Nuisance By-law and

A strata corporation is created to divide a building(s) and/or aparcel of land into separate components individually owned and commoncomponents owned by all of the owners. See http://www.fic.gov.bc.ca/pdf/responsibilities_strata/guide03.pdf [accessed on July 18, 2012].
5 Mr. Schuman filed a certified copy of the McDaniel decision in theClerks Office of this Honorable Court on July 9, 2012 and have attached acopy to the appendix to this reply.

for more than half of the period of [the McDaniels] ownershipof the premises, they were subjected to secondhand smoke toa degree they found beyond unacceptable and debilitating.During periods of increased smoke infiltration, their healthrisks and stress levels escalated. Id. at 10, 14.
Additionally, the tribunal found that
[t]hough aware of the McDaniels sensitivities andvulnerabilities, the Respondent never marshaled a meaningful,effective response. In my view, based on the materials filed,the Respondents conduct, while not overtly aggressive or confrontive, was indecisive and minimizing of the McDanielsdistress to the point that they came to hate their home. TheTribunal has said, and I accept that from any personal, social,
emotional or developmental perspective, a home is central toa persons security and sense of self. Id. at 14.
The tribunal ordered the strata corporation to cease its discrimination and
refrain from committing a similar contravention in the future and pay the
McDaniels a total of $8,018.88 as costs and compensation for injury to their
dignity, feelings and self-respect. Id. at 15-16.
As did the strata corporation in McDaniel, GHI failed to enforce its
nuisance clause with regard to the Popovics smoking, and thus, using the
language from the McDaniel decision, never marshaled a meaningful,
effective response to Mr. Schumans complaints. Id. at 14. Additionally, the
strata corporation suggested that the McDaniels could have attempted to
obtain the support of other residents to enact a no smoking bylaw, just as
GHI argues in the instant case, but both Mr. Schuman (and presumably, the
McDaniels) believe that such lobbying is not necessary or required to
exercise their rights under a contract that includes a nuisance clause.

Unlike cases cited by GHI in its brief, McDaniel is a case from 2012.
The McDaniel decision is the kind of decision that will be repeated over and
over again as the dangers of secondhand smoke become engrained in the
public consciousness. In fact, future legal scholars will, in all likelihood, be
shocked at the Circuit Courts decision in the instant case since this decision
is at odds with the proven dangers of secondhand smoke.
5. GHI Statement : The Circuit Court properly found that GHI wasnot negligent. [p. 22-23].
Mr. Schumans Reply : As Mr. Schumans landlord, GHI had a duty, by
contract, to enforce the Mutual Ownership Contract. GHIs failure to enforce
the nuisance clause of the Mutual Ownership Contract gives rise to Mr.
Schumans nuisance claim against GHI.
6. GHI Statement : Mr. Schuman failed to present evidence of damages that are actual and reasonably certain and suffered no medical
or physical harm other than smell. [p. 11-12, 24].Mr. Schumans Reply : Mr. Schuman presented significant evidence at
trial as to the medical and physical harm other than smell he (and the
Popovics other neighbors) suffered due to Mr. Popovics smoking. Mr.
Schuman testified that the secondhand smoke caused him to have difficulty
breathing, caused his heart to race, caused his eyes to tear up, caused him
to cough and sneeze, caused him to have headaches and prevented him
from sleeping. [E. 401-02]. Mr. Schumans expert, Dr. Munzer, the former
President of the American Lung Association, testified that [t]hese are the
7/31/2019 Schuman v. Greenbelt Homes - Appellant's Reply Brief
17/37
14
kind of symptoms that we would typically hear from a person exposed to
secondhand smoke. [E. 862-63]. The symptoms that Mr. Schuman
reported were echoed by Mr. Popovics other next-door neighbor, Ms.
Ipolito, who testified that the smoking trigger[ed] wheezing and caused her
to use a rescue inhaler to breathe. [E. 308-09]. Additionally, the Surgeon
General states that no amount of exposure to secondhand smoke is safe.
So the exposure in itself is a harm, regardless of symptoms.
7. GHI Statement : The Circuit Court properly found that Mr.
Schuman failed to mitigate his exposure to secondhand smoke. [p. 25].
Mr. Schumans Reply : Mr. Schuman is not aware of any Maryland case
or statute requiring a resident of one home to mitigate his damages from
the harmful and dangerous products migrating from his or her neighbors
home and believes that no such case or statute exists. This lack of duty to
mitigate notwithstanding, Mr. Schuman could not open his windows or usehis patio due to Mr. Popovics smoking. [E. 467]. Mr. Schuman contractor
sealed all of the holes between the Schuman and Popovic homes. [E. 205].
Outside of vacating his home, there was nothing more Mr. Schuman could
do to mitigate his damages.
8. GHI Statement : The Circuit Court correctly ruled that Mr.Schuman established no claim for nuisance and he was not entitled to aninjunction prohibiting Mr. Popovic from smoking outside. [p. 27].
Mr. Schumans Reply : If Mr. Popovics patio smoking caused
secondhand smoke to migrate onto Mr. Schumans property, and this
