Answer:

Implied Right of Habitability

Explanation:

The Implicit Right to Habitability is a rule ensured by law that an owner must keep the house, which he will rent or sell to someone, in a situation where all the premises of the house must be in perfect condition for housing. This includes being bug-free, with electricity, gas and plumbing in perfect function. The implied right of habitability is even the right of Dr. Mullins' tenants to complain about bats in the attic of the rented house.
