GARDEN CITY, Idaho — The owner of a Japanese restaurant at The Boardwalk Apartments claims he was suddenly locked out of his business last month and is now taking the landlord to court, alleging wrongful eviction and the loss of more than $100,000 in equipment.

Frank Jordan, owner of Bao Boi, told Idaho News 6 he showed up to work in October and found himself shut out of the space.

“He literally locked the doors and kept all of my stuff,” Jordan said.

Jordan said tensions with the building’s management had been building for months, beginning with move-in delays when the business opened last fall, months later than originally planned.
