JURISDICTION AND VENUE
1. This Court is one of competent jurisdiction and venue to adjudicate this civil action.
2. The property at issue lies within the geographical boundaries of Wagoner County.
3. All of the events and unlawful actions alleged occurred within the geographical boundaries of Wagoner County.
FACTS
4. On or about September 13, 2025, Plaintiffs executed a valid lease for the home located at 1500 S 28th St, Broken Arrow Oklahoma ("The Home").
5. A true and correct copy of such lease is attached as Exhibit A.
6. This lease grants physical possession of the home to Plaintiffs until October 1, 2026.
7. At the time of executing the lease, Plaintiffs were in negotiations with Defendant to purchase the home.
8. However, negotiations were unsuccessful and Defendants listed the home for sale on or about January 22, 2026.
9. Since executing the lease, Plaintiffs have not missed a single rent payment.
10. Since executing the lease, Plaintiffs have kept the home in good condition.
11. Since executing the lease, Plaintiffs have trained their dogs to stay off of the carpet generally.
12. Since executing the lease, Plaintiffs received permission to make material alterations to the home.
13. On or about January 28, 2026, Defendants told Plaintiffs that they would need to leave the property during “showings” of the house.
14. However, the lease agreement states that Defendant may show the home for sale “within forty-five (45) days before the expiration of the lease.
15. Thus, Defendant listed and displayed the house for sale over 200 days before they were contractually permitted to do so.
16. On or about February 3, 2026, Defendants contacted Plaintiffs and informed them that the house had been sold.
17. Defendant then told Plaintiffs that Defendant was ending the lease and Plaintiffs must vacate within 30 days. Exhibit B.
18. Defendant did so by serving Plaintiffs with a legal notice of lease termination.
19. Plaintiffs objected to the unilateral and unlawful termination of their lease and stated that they did not agree to Defendant’s new terms.
20. In retaliation for not agreeing to their unlawful demand, Defendant began to plot ways to harass, endanger, humiliate, and evict Plaintiffs from their home.
21. On or about February 5, 2026, Defendants told Plaintiffs that an appraiser would need access to their home the following day.
22. Defendants did not say that anyone other than the appraiser would be coming to the home or that the home would be inspected.
23. The following day, the inspector arrived and viewed the home under the supervision of Plaintiffs.
24. However, Defendant Ashely Dixon used the distraction to unlawfully enter into the home.
25. Defendant Ashley Dixon did not knock or announce her arrival.
26. Instead, Dixon entered the home stealthily and began searching the home and taking photos of whatever she wanted.
27. This search included private places including the drawers and cabinets of the master bedroom, master bathroom, and master closet.
28. When caught, Defendant ignored Plaintiff’s questions of what she was doing or why she was there.
29. Plaintiff believes further discovery will show that Defendant unlawfully took photos and videos of private places in the home for the purposes of harassing Plaintiffs.
30. Plaintiff believes further discovery will show that Defendant altered the premises by causing damage to the home or otherwise taking personal property belonging to Plaintiffs.
31. On or about February 5, 2026, Plaintiff told Defendant that they did not approve of the illegal lease termination and stated that they would not be vacating the home until the end of lease in October.
32. On or about February 6, 2026, Defendants sent Plaintiffs a 10-day notice to cure. Exhibit C
33. This notice to cure contained a number of false allegations and required ridiculous and expensive mitigation processes for those false allegations.
34. These include:
a. False allegations of pet waste in the home.
b. Guttering issues which Defendants had a duty to fix, but failed to do so,
c. Cigarette odor from the previous tenant which Defendants had duty to remediate but failed to do so,
d. Removal of a lawfully permitted dog that has not been in the home for months,
e. Removal of alterations that were approved in writing pursuant to the contract,
f. Removal of security cameras that could capture Defendants’ unlawful behavior,
g. A demand that Plaintiffs organize their garage because the stored items “Obstruct access to the water heater and attic/furnace, preventing proper inspection…”
35. These allegations are false.
36. Defendant also created a number of insane and expensive “cures” to remedy their fake issues.
These include
a. A demand to “properly fill, grade, compact, and stabilize, the area to restore drainage away from the structure.”
b. A demand for a “licensed, insured, and commercial established” company specializing in “pet waste” and “biohazard remediation” to clean the property.
c. “Mandatory” carpet cleaning by a “truck-mounted how water extraction” vehicle that “use[s] enzymatic and bio-active pet waste neutralizers.’
d. “Professional treatment” of baseboards, subfloor transitions, and flooring utilizing “enzymatic or bio-neutralizing products designed for cleaning animal waste.”
e. “Ozone or Hydroxyl treatment” for “odor neutralization.”
f. Removal of all alterations that were previously approved in writing despite the fact that such alterations are only to be removed at the end of the lease.
g. Time consuming preapproval of every correction prior to purchase or install to include “manufacturer” and model, “retailer SKU” “specification sheet” “licensed installer information,1” “proof of insurance2,” “Written scope of work,” and “proposed install date.”
37. Defendants created fake problems for Plaintiffs to “cure” to justify their unlawful eviction and attempted breach of contract.
38. Defendants’ “cures” are exceedingly expensive, unnecessary, and merely interposed to create impossible barriers to continuing the lease.
39. Many of the “cures” are impossible such as proof of insurance prior to purchasing equipment or biohazard remediation.
40. Defendants’ complaints in their 10-day notice to cure are purely pretextual.
COUNT 1: BREACH OF CONTRACT
41. Plaintiffs and Defendants entered into a valid contract for the lease of The Home.
42. This agreement was in writing and clearly laid out the duties of the parties.
43. Defendants breached this contract by repudiating their obligations via termination notice on February 3, 2026. Exhibit B.
______________________________
1 Licensed installer information is generally not presented until after purchase.
2 It is unknown what insurance could be purchased prior to the purchase of materials or what would be insured.
44. Defendants breached this contract by showing and listing the home for sale 200 days prior to date allowed by contract. Exhibit A ¶ 13.
45. Defendants breached this contract by interfering with Plaintiffs’ contractual right of quiet enjoyment. Exhibit A ¶ 18.
46. Defendants breached this contract by failing to repair the premises as required by contract.
47. Defendants breached this contract by entering the property without the consent of Plaintiffs and without a valid 24-hour notice.
48. Defendants’ actions constitute a material breach of the agreement.
49. Plaintiffs were harmed by Defendant’s Breach in the amount to be determined at trial. Defendants’ breach is ongoing and cannot be fully calculated at this time.

COUNT 2: CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES
52. At the time of contracting, Defendants were aware that breach would cause harm to Plaintiffs.

63. Plaintiffs believe that further discovery will show that Ashely Dixon took photos or videos of such private places.

72. Defendants’ actions were intended to cause emotional harm.
73. Defendants’ actions were successful in causing severe emotional harm, including physical manifestations of that harm
74. Thus, Plaintiffs have been harmed in an amount to be determined at trial.
COUNT 6: Violations of the Landlord Tenant Act
75. Oklahoma law requires that “Every duty under this act and every act which must be performed as a condition precedent to the exercise of a right or remedy under this act imposes an obligation of good faith in its performance or enforcement.” 41 O.S. § 107.
76. Defendants have failed to act in good faith when dealing with Plaintiffs.
77. Defendants offered a leasing contract to Plaintiffs that was validly executed.
78. However, this agreement contained unlawful and unenforceable provisions including:

82. Defendant Ashley Dixon harassed Plaintiffs by making repeated unreasonable demands for entry in violation of 41 O.S. § 124.
83. Defendant created new rules in their 10-day notice to cure which were arbitrary, unfair, and intended to impossible to follow. This alteration is a substantial modification of such tenant's bargain.
84. Plaintiffs have been harmed in an amount to be determined at trial.
85. Plaintiffs are entitled to attorney’s fees at the adjudication of this action.
86. Plaintiffs are entitled to injunctive relief pursuant to 41 O.S. § 124.

90. Plaintiffs do not believe that the defects exist.
91. Plaintiffs believe that any alleged defects that might exist are not terminable offenses under the lease.
92. Plaintiffs believe that any alleged defects that might exist are the responsibility of Defendants.
93. Defendant’s 10-day notice to cure is fraudulent and created to create a pretextual reason for eviction.
94. Thus, Defendants do not have the power to terminate the lease.
95. Plaintiffs believe that further discovery will show that Defendants told the two unknown Buyers that they could move into the home before October 1, 2026.
96. However, Plaintiffs have a right to exclusive possession of the property up to and until October 1, 2026.
