Hi,
I am needing some help. I am currently attempting to sue my former landlord for failure to repair a mold problem. Basically, I went thru the proper channels to make sure that all repair requests were documented and the landlord canceled the lease instead of repairing the problem. I currently have a law suit filed, but my problem is this.... he lives out of the country. The only addresses I have for him is a PO box, and he has his Domestic Limited Partnership listed with the State of Texas, but the address is a house he rents out. I attempted to have the suit served to his local contact (which is listed in the lease), but it still has not been served (filed on 1/4/07). I can have the state serve him where he lives, but I have no address for him in his foreign living space. I was wondering if I could have his lawyer served with the paperwork. I have heard that he may not sign for it, in which case I would be back to where I am now.
What options are available to me? I am sitting here, out about $4500 on the verge of losing everything.... please help.
Thanks for all help in advance,
David
