It depends what you mean. IF she gave at least 30 days advanced written notice, and the notice contained all the required information and was lawfully served, then she owes rent through the 30 day notice date or when she restores possession to you, whichever is later. However, if that date falls... View More

It somewhat depends upon the circumstances. Most communities have leash laws and in most places, unattended dogs wandering anywhere/everywhere on their own are prohibited. Packs of wild dogs are not good for society and how is one to know, looking at this particular dog, if it is wild or a... View More

Assuming your landlord has issued the required notice, containing the required information and lawfully served, your choice sounds to be remove the dog; get out; or be subject to being evicted.

If the yard is a common area shared with other tenants, or it is an emergency (pipe burst, etc.), then they likely don't have to provide you 24 hr notice. If you have requested repairs, they can enter without 24 hr notice for 7 days following the repair request, longer if they are in the... View More

Assuming you are in Oregon, IF the statute of limitations is up, then no, they can no longer forcibly collect a debt from you and may well be committing an Unfair Debt Collection Practice and/or a Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (i.e. both State and Federal potential violations). BUT if they... View More

You don't identify why you think you have a claim. They routinely disclose that some of their tickets are being re-sold at higher than initial venue prices and may change at any time. You waited, then you pounced, only to find that you would have been better off waiting longer. That was a... View More

You can sue her in court for the return of your pet or for monetary damages. How much it will cost is impossible to know. With a bit of planning, you might be able to put her on the hook for your attorney's fees and costs but there is no guarantee ahead of time.

Yes they can charge you for utilities that benefit other tenants or common areas IF they tell you so in a written lease, tell you the formula used to determine the amount, etc. They also have timing and disclosure requirements. Check out ORS 90.315 for the statutory requirements. I question whether... View More

Being a GSD dog is irrelevant to this situation. You are vulnerable to being sued and your dog is likely subject to being restricted henceforth. Depending where this occured, your dog may be required to be muzzled and leashed whenever not inside your house, possibly have a secure kennel installed,... View More

You need to read the lease very carefully but it is unlikely. First, there is a 1 year statute of limitations on most claims arising out of a rental agreement. Second, if utilities are billed by the provider to the landlord, and the landlord intends to bill them on, in part or whole, to the tenant,... View More

As long as the tenant has been there for less than a year and they are on a month to month tenancy, a landlord is free to terminate their tenancy without cause by serving the appropriate notice(s). Whether 30 days or 90 days notice is required depends where the rental is located, as is any... View More

You are not likely to be able to disavow the contract and even if you did, it sounds like it cannot be reversed at this point. The most you are likely to possibly have is a claim for the market value of your now deceased cat - i.e. replacement cost. Unfortunately, in the legal world, pets are not... View More

No. A landlord can only get rid of you with advanced written notice. How much notice depends upon what grounds he has to terminate your tenancy. It is unlawful to terminate your tenancy out of retaliation for complaints and the Sheriff can only throw you out after a Judge orders it. If the landlord... View More

First, only a landlord can terminate a tenancy - your roommate has no more right to end it than you do to end his. Second, a landlord can only terminate your tenancy with written notice. How much written notice depends on the reason. If for cause, such as failure to pay rent or breach of lease, it... View More

Sorry but it is not up to you whether the charges are dropped or if the District Attorney proceeds to trial and attempts to get a criminal conviction. Actions have consequences - both for you and for him. You can talk to his criminal defense attorney if you wish to see what, if anything, you can... View More

You obviously were concerned about your safety. Nevertheless you had no right to remove the tree - that was the landlord's right - and obligation - not yours or your decision to make. If you believed the tree posed a serious risk, you could\should have have requested the City to inspect and if... View More

A landlord cannot increase a security deposit in the first year of a tenancy, absent a modification of the rental agreement and consent of the tenant (e.g. a pet is added during the first year and the landlord wants an increased security deposit to cover potential pet damages). After the first... View More

It is unclear why the buyer thinks they are entitled to a refund and lots depends on exactly what was said before the sale and\or details but As Is means As Is and anything could have happened to the vehicle in the few days between purchase and inspection. Bottom line is buyer should have had... View More

First, you have indeed had a rental agreement but it may have only been verbal, which makes it difficult for either side to prove the exact terms. If BF moved out voluntarily, his exit likely terminated the tenancy for both of you. If, however, he left due to domestic violence, you may be entitled... View More

If he is going to claim an emergency, he has to notify you in writing within 24 hrs that he came in, when, and what the emergency was. If he did not, you likely have a claim against him, probably worth a month's rent plus court costs and attorney's fees. If you think you have a claim,... View More
