So my landlord has filed to evict my mother (48f) and I (23m) for 'failure to pay rent', however the information on the paper sent to us was incorrect.
The cherry on top is just the small stuff, like I had to cover a hole in the floor with duct tape so that my mother wouldn't trip on it walking to her room, or that when the electrician came over he said someone would be by later that day to take a look at the wall, and that was a month ago.
We aren't the only tenants in the building who have had issues that haven't been rectified either. With all that said is there anything I could take to court to try and either stop the eviction or even get us an extension on it, maybe give us a little more time?
- There was never a signed lease. All agreements were made verbally, or sent through text messages.
- The name indicated is incorrect and isn't the legal name.
- The photo attached as proof that an eviction notice was posted isn't even of our front door, and the information on that paper posted is incorrect as well.
- The address we are being 'evicted' from isn't our address, nor is it the address that he shafted us from moving in to either.
