I hired attorneys, I hadn't heard from them in a couple months so I called to see what was going on and I was then told they had tried to contact me an had to drop my case because they couldn't reach me for discovery. They had the correct phone number & address, they had came to my... Read more »

On what date and year did the accident happen? Generally, in Kentucky you only have one year from the date of your injury to file a lawsuit. Please let me know the answer to my question so I can further advise you.
Thanks

I told the landlord of this mobile home park that the pitbull had moved in next door. She said she'd check into it and get back to me. One month later, the dog was in my yard and attacked my tiny dog, attacked me, and killed my dog which was right at my feet. Not an apology or even paying me... Read more »

Sue the dog owner and the landlord both.
Can he legally do this.

Depends on whether there is a written lease.
The property sits on an acre of land on my mother-in-laws farm. What would happen if my husband and I divorced? Since she doesn't live with us I feel as if she shouldn't have ties in the share value of the home. Also, what would happen if my mother-in- and father-in-law divorced? Would he... Read more »

Seeing the actual deed would be important, but basically you, your husband and m-I-l are either tenants in common or tenants with right of survivorship. Either way you m-I-l has a 1/3 or 1/2 interest in the property. If you and your husband divorce, she would be entitled to 1/3. If she and her... Read more »
The bug guys come in and will look/snoop and when they go to leave the maintenance man who's normally the one who comes in with them to snoop but not now with the covid he stays outside and when they leave he ask them if they seen more then one animal and they do answer. Can they even do that?... Read more »

Yes. They can.
I have attempted to reach out to the property owner over all of the mold i have found. Who should I contact over this and what exactly are my rights as a tenant? Can I break my lease and move because of how bad the mold is? I have 3 children in the home and we all have been sick for awhile. Please... Read more »

Contact your local health department as well as a certified black mold inspector who can give you a report on the toxicity of the situation and what needs to be done to rectify it both temporarily and permanently.

Not if you prove that the basis of eviction is false.
They have a 3 month lease and only paid deposit and one month. They left the 2 weeks after the 3rd month

You’ll have to sue them to collect your money.
I live in Subsidized housing (rent based on income), recently the re-certification person requested a copy of my 2019 Federal Income tax in order for me to be re-certified. I feel that she was being nasty for no reason and unprofessional, simply because I was the ONLY one that turned in my tax... Read more »

I would review the documents provided by the program under which your housing is subsidized. Just pull the documents directly and see what they say. Then if you feel that the landlord has requested too much you have documentation to backup your claim and contact information for the organization... Read more »
My dog was not DNA tested when I signed lease or moved in Oct 2018 ... they completed DNA testing in Feb 2020. Now they are trying to fine me for samples collected in Dec 2018, March 2019, and Feb 2020. Can they do this? I have always picked up my dogs bathroom, but sometimes weather or even... Read more »

The answer to your question depends on the terms of your lease. If your lease provides for it, then yes, he can.
Are you required to clean up after your dog if you're disabled? I have a service dog (task trained not some stupid fake ESA with a vest) and while he can carry things for me... he can't scoop his own poop and I can't always scoop myself. Can I get in trouble for leaving it?

Yes. You are still required to clean up after your fog....service or otherwise.
Yes I do have proof that the landlord and maintenance men stole my belongings. Very satisfying proof

If you can prove it, yes.
An enforcement worker has come to find multiple violations which resulted in my apartment complex being fined 2x times and the problems are extensive as to electrical wiring being exposed, smoke detectors not working, air filters not being replaced since before we have moved in and well passed...

If you don’t have a lease, you probably have 30 days. The olive won’t likely remove you, but she can evict you.
It freezes up on the inside and outside he also told us when my son moved out that he would give us 250back on dog deposit but has not and he charges $40 extra for water each person living here

What is your question?

No. Not until the lease expires. After it expires, he will probably only offer a new lease with that term, however.
I am 100% disabled veteran with a wife and 2 small kids. I was told I have to drive the 1000 miles there just to sign a piece of paper to get charges filed. Then drive 1000 miles back, hope they prosecute (the attacker is a local preacher and friends with the chief of police, sheriff, prosecutor... Read more »

If the attack happened in Kentucky, then yes, you would have to file the charges in Kentucky.
Can I do rent in escrow if landlord is notified and has not responded to repairs in over 30 days. Mold is getting worse.

You can if you have notified the landlord IN WRITING and he has not redone thin 30 days. Everything you do must be heavily documented and in writing to prove your case, including the roof that it is indeed black mold. Anything and everything you do orally is worthless.
The room itself is very small and walled with thin paneling. It has two very small windows that are painted shut so there is no egress. The room also has no vents or any access to the central heat or the air. Although not as severe, the room also has no closet and the ceilings are very low. This... Read more »

Establish that there is mold in the house and that is the cause of your sickness. Put them on notice of it by sending a letter and demanding it be corrected. If not corrected, you can void the lease and move.
