Well, you've answered your own question then. Since you are now working, you owe rent, including the rent that would normally have started once you began working again. See if you can work with management to come up with payment plan where you can slowly pay back what you owe in back rent...

No, there is nothing you can do about this. There is no law against your landlord telling your friend this information. Actually, it appears they were trying to warn you that unless something is done about the dog poop, further action will be taken. Ask your friend to help with the yard...

Are you saying that you did not owe rent while on maternity leave, went back to working, never got asked to pay rent and never questioned why this was...and now wondering if they can require you to pay all of this back rent? Gail

As a month to month tenant, your tenancy can be easily terminated by the landlord with a relatively small amount of notice: http://www.tenant.net/Other_Areas/Ohio/landlord.html You can do the same. Gail

1. Yes. You had no business giving a spare key to a non-tenant. 2. Not in this case. You all three signed the lease 3. What does your lease say regarding guests? Overnight guests? Best to visit the boyfriend at his place. In regards to the implied name calling.... "Sticks and...

The OP would need to provide evidence that is both accurate and irrefutable regarding any claims of the "instability" of the mother to achieve any hope of being given full custody. Understand that judges who handle these type of cases hear all sorts of wild stories on how one parent is...

Until paternity is established, you are not legally considered to be the father. You need to seriously rethink your goal of full custody (and, by the way; if you cannot afford to pay for an DNA test how do you plan on having the funds to raise a child?). Once paternity is established...

Your girlfriend will be able to present her reasons for leaving without notice to the judge during the hearing. She needs to make certain she can attend this. Gail

To answer your question regarding being able to get out of your lease without the risk of financial penalty over this matter; the answer is no. Gail

Begin the process of eviction in Georgia: http://www.dca.state.ga.us/housing/housingdevelopment/programs/downloads/landlord/evictdisposs.html Sometimes the initial letter to vacate is enough to, well, have the unwanted persons living there do exactly that. The police will not get...

Your roommate broke the lease and moved out early and you found someone to take over HIS/HER portion of the rent...but not yours when you moved out. Why do you think you don't owe for your share of the rent? Gail

In the absence of a written lease, a renter is considered to have a "tenancy at will", i.e., they have a month to month lease. If they pay monthly the lease begins the first day of the month and ends on the last. Month to month tenancies in Oregon (as in many states) can be terminated with a...

Look; you can't have it both ways. You can't claim that the house is uninhabitable (which, from your description, is very likely) and then state, oh we don't want to move because it's a pain to pull my child out of school...as long as we can live here rent free. It is highly unlikely a judge...

Quite likely, absolutely none. You can, of course, argue to the judge that this was the incorrect amount. It's up to him/her to decide whether this was simply a mistake or the landlord has to refile. Is there some point of dragging this out longer? Gail

Attached is information on the First Offenders Act in Georgia. The list of crimes that are not covered by this act are listed at the bottom: http://www.ms-firm.com/first_offender_act_in_georgia.html Gail

As a tenant at will, you are in a rather precarious position. Yes, you could terminate the lease with a minimal amount of notice..but so could the landlord. In the case of a new lease, your options are to agree to what the lease states, attempt to negotiate or consider finding a new place to...

Yes. Gail

Attached is a source to the landlord/tenant laws of Tennessee: http://www.federalrealestate.net/laws/tn.html You also need to go back and read what I have written previously. A landord (or in this case, your roommates) has/have an obligation to make an honest effort to find a tenant to...
