Your tenant is correct that rent accrues and is prorated on a daily basis so they would be entitled to a refund of their prepaid rent for the balance of the month. However, that all is based upon their providing you with at least 30 days advanced written notice of their termination of tenancy.... View More

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. Your dog has demonstrated aggression and you have demonstrated a failure to maintain your leashes in... View More

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

The vet has a lien on your pet to secure payment for their services. Just like you can't pick up your car from the repair shop without paying for it, you don't get to pick up your pet until you pay the bill. Why would you think you could get the vet's services without paying for it?

Looking at your house from their own property is fully lawful and, by itself, not subject to any sort of restraining order. Depending upon the exact details and local ordinances, this is what fences were created for.

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

Run, don't walk, to a local landlord-tenant attorney's office. You likely have monetary claims against the landlord, including your court costs and attorney's fees.

Too much shorthand and not enough detail. Not clear what you're asking. Written notice is required to terminate a tenancy. It must contain all the legally required information and be lawfully served. If the dwelling is within Portland city limits, 90 days advanced notice is generally required... View More

You are entitled to be shown proof of the acceptance of an offer to sell and certification by the buyer that they intend to occupy the dwelling as their primary residence. You may be entitled to relocation assistance if the landlord owns more than 4 rental units in Oregon.

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
