Rep. Cory Mills (R) could face eviction from his apartment in Washington, D.C., after the company managing the property sued to expel the Florida lawmaker from the building, alleging he owes over $85,000 in unpaid rent, court filings show.
Bozzuto Management Company said Mills failed to pay the rent owed, even after he was served a nonpayment of rent notice in January, according to independent journalist Roger Sollenberger, who was first to report on the complaint filed with the Superior Court of the District of Columbia.
The company alleges Mills owes $85,009.80 in total rent from March 2025 to
July 2025, noting that the property’s monthly rent amounts to $20,833.
Bozzuto claims, “Defendant failed to pay the rent owed after being properly served with a written Nonpayment of Rent Notice” on Jan. 22, requesting that he pay his then-balance of rent of $17,361 by Feb. 26. Bozzuto also sent him a notice of their intent to file a lawsuit, screenshots provided by Sollenberger show.
A resident ledger also indicated Mills failed to make payments on time.
When approached for comment, Mills’ office pointed to his statement on X, adding that the Florida Republican “has been in contact with his landlord from the beginning, attempting to resolve their payment link issue so he can pay his bill.”
In his X post, Mills contested Sollenberger’s reporting, attacking the journalist and claiming that he had experienced issues with the management’s online payment system and had contacted them about it repeatedly.
Mills included screenshots of two separate emails, dated June 17 and July 3, that he claims he sent to the company requesting payment links.
“Here’s just the past two months where you can see I’m repeatedly asking for payment links and again as I tried with management today, it failed to process,” he wrote.
Meanwhile, Mills faced an investigation over allegations that he assaulted a 27-year-old woman, who was not his wife, on Feb. 19 at a Washington apartment. Mills denied wrongdoing.
