With no explanation, chose the best option from "A", "B", "C" or "D". manner” that the legislature did not intend. Id., 562 A.2d at 136. According to the court, the purpose of § 16-1502, the service of summons statute that was amended at the same time as § 45-1406, the service of notice to quit statute, was to help ensure that a tenant was actually provided with the summons. Thus, where a technical application of the statute would not accomplish this goal, technical compliance would not comport with the spirit in which § 16-1502 was enacted. The court concluded that enant from the method of service — the case here— and the method of service can be accommodated by the language of the statute, consistent with case law and the statute’s legislative history, the court should not invalidate an otherwise adequate notice to quit.
