No. Your landlord's insurance company is obligated to the landlord; for a tenant to contact or make a claim on a landlord's insurance would be like calling your neighbor's auto insurance carrier to report them speeding.

A landlord does have a legal obligation to provide an... View More

Your former boyfriend is responsible for adhering to the terms of the PPO; not the employer, who has no more obligation to you than to him. It is unreasonable to expect an employer or cooperative to manage what is a personal legal issue between you two.

Good question! You may have a defense of waiver. You should seek the assistance of a local attorney quickly.

The park can do what it wants with ITS land. And if that means something you don't understand that is still OK.

I can see how the park might think "someone renting is likely to skip out in the middle and leave us a mess to clean up, but a purchaser is in it for the long run so... View More

Municipality owned/operated utilities for water and/or sewer CAN under state law, add unpaid bills into the property taxes. This doesn't sound 'unusual' to me.

What DOES matter is your misuse of the word 'tenant' which makes me think you didn't get legal advice... View More

It's possible the landlord routinely sends notice to quit near the end of the lease term so that if you don't want to renew, then there is no issue with forcing you out when your lease ends.

You should contact your county's legal aid office. If you've been served and have a court date, the court will probably already have someone from legal aid ready to assist you for the subsequent hearing.

I would suggest that for your costs and time, it would be most cost effective for you to hire a local attorney to conduct the eviction. The onus is on you as the landlord to meet each procedural and administrative step; a misstep - even unintentional - could delay, or in worst case, cause the... View More

Sounds like you need to look into getting a PPO and / or contact the police.

You're outlining a case that comes with a strong headwind. I am hesitant to say it is definitely barred until more information is divulged. While on the one hand it is certainly true the statute of frauds will inevitably be a defense raise by your uncle, it is not a straightforward case:... View More

What exactly is your question?

I can’t imagine a storage company ‘siding with’ anyone. Had you paid your storage bill? The scenario is unclear.

If you didn’t pay your bill they COUKD have auctioned off you’d stuff for back rent and Re rented the unit to someone else who... View More

What does your lease say about rent increases? If proper notice is given - which, a month and a half is likely reasonable - you may be stuck.

No. FOIA is for public / government entities. If they were to initiate an eviction based on the complaint, I think you'd have an ability to discover that information then, but I don't think the management has any obligation to give you a copy now.

You need to get to your local courthouse quickly. There is a concept called constructive eviction, and self-help evictions are prohibited in Michigan.

You are at risk for CPS action because you don't have stable housing (e.g. name on a lease). Does the landlord know you are subletting? If so, you should talk with them. If they don't know and had not approved, then your issue is with your ex roommate, but going after her will not help... View More

There is a particular timeline that must be followed in Michigan regarding security deposits on both the landlord and tenant side. If that timeline hasn't been followed, then you might have a cause of action to file and recover it.

This is an opportunity to make decisions affecting how you will manage this property going forward. It starts with a well-drafted lease. Unless you formally evict this tenant of course, the tenant has the right to quite enjoyment of the property. So "own" is not the right word in the... View More

With or without a lease, you have a tenant. And the only legal way to get a tenant out is through eviction proceedings, which without specific circumstances, will require a 30-day notice period.

Well it sort of depends on where you are in the tenancy and what the landlord means that you will be evicted.

Hypothetically, if your lease expired or your otherwise you're under a month-to-month tenancy and imagine that on Monday the 23rd the landlord told you to sign or you're... View More

Like Mr. Geers says, probably not illegal, but also likely unreasonable.

I could imagine a discrimination based complaint where a practice like this is discriminatory against persons who don't have ready access to a device that connects to the internet. But, there would need to be a... View More
