Q: I have documentation in texts and emails to prove I am being harassed (Multiple ways) by my landlord. Do I have a case?
Proof of Incorrect information, No access to a Lease that was electronically signed, Threatened to evict with no probable cause, does not answer questions, and does not work with tenants nor do they accept the evidence when the tenant shows proof on time of rental payments.
A:
Sorry, none of that is harassment, and "probable cause" only relates to criminal matters. The landlord can threaten to evict any time you're not in compliance with the lease, and can follow through on that threat. Even if they lose the eviction case, their threat of eviction doesn't become harassment.
On a positive note, if they file an eviction, at least you'll get a copy of the lease. Make sure you have your evidence of rent payment ready.
