Sure anyone can sue anyone else at any time for anything--including this situation.
But I don't recommend trying it without a lawyer.
Whether you have a good claim or not depends on what the code violations were for.
Hire a lawyer to investigate this case and advise you on what to do.

Since you are renting you do not own the premises, so report all of this to your landlord or their agent.

Until you know whether she actually has it there isn't much you can do. And after, you can take him to court for violating parental responsibility.
Good luck!
If a Decedent died intestate and was never married, had no kids, no surviving parents or grandparents and no surviving aunts/uncles, or issue thereof, is there any possible scenario that would allow for the next of kin collateral heirs (being descendants of great-grandparents, ie. second cousins)...

Yes, it is possible. The State rarely gets assets to an estate. One thing that would be done in a probate with only distant and remote heirs would be the affidavit of heirs. If an intestate decedent has no living spouse, children, parents, or siblings, intestacy laws provide mechanisms to determine... View More

So, I know I'm in the wrong too, but I need to see the best way to go about this. I have outside cats and just move where the landlord doesn't want animals, but they are outside cats. For my own reasons, I didn't mention it and just need a week or so for them to get use to their new... View More

Sorry, but you probably violated your lease (which we cannot review here online), requested service and now are upset the landlord found out you have cats in his house.
