Q: After seeing the apartment upstairs remodeled, the guy renting the restaurant downstairs decided he wanted the apartment
I had a verbal agreement with the lady that if the person running downstairs did not want the unit she would let me remodel it . She didn't want him to back out of the lease for $3,400 a month so she gave him a key to my apartment and let him proceed with getting me arrested six times in 22 days for trespassing even though I had an eviction notice in my hand. I was not given due process of law. I was falsely arrested 6 x and
the last time when I did 15 days they threw away everything I owned putting me on the street for two and a half years before I could get on My feet again. This all happened very shortly before covid came out so the courts were closed for a year plus I was under duress due to their actions. I need to know is can I get an extension on the what I believe is a 2-year statute of limitations and PS the landlord wrote on the back of the eviction notice reason for eviction owes me $800. Proving that we had an agreement
A: Most likely the statute of limitations has run for anything occurring during Covid or 2 1/2 years ago. You may want to consult a civil rights attorney to be absolutely sure.
