Q: My landlord handed me a 30 day notice and told me that there was no court date.
I was only behind $237 dollars of the previous months rent, which she verbally agreed to wait to receive, but she now refuses any money from me. She has continually harassed me about my babysitter, saying I let someone move in, thats not true, she says I destroy things in the basement, I NEVER been in the basement, I have no idea what it looks like and the mental patient downstairs, whom she initially told me was the brother of the tenant downstairs, is always down there. I have a witness to this. There is more to this case, some safety issues as well. What do I do?
A: Based on your description of circumstances and the people involved, and considering the false accusations, if you were my client and received a 30-day notice I'd tell you to find a new place to live and get out of there as soon as possible.
