| Posted: 23 Aug 2020 03:46 AM PDT I have clinical PTSD like a motherfucker, and after another restless night of nightmares, I need to put this fear away for some peace. Title explains it pretty well, but some facts:
I have a chosen sister who's a willing Medical PoA, but I'm still worried about them being contacted as NoK or something if I'm pulled limp out of a wreck. Any information they get about me would be terrifying. My father is basically a gun hoarding sovereign citizen who has indicated many times in my childhood that it's his right to put me down (something something I'm his property). His old emails alternate between sadness and fury. I'm immunosuppressed and the state of the world isn't helping my nightmares -- I'm terrified of them having say over what happens to me if I'm incapacitated, or even knowing anything about me. What can I do? [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 23 Aug 2020 07:05 AM PDT I hope this is the right place for this kind of question. Last Tuesday someone sent me a message on Facebook, i don't know this person and my husband says he doesn't either. She claimed that in December of 2019 at the Christmas work party that my husband forced himself upon her. I was very very confused by this message, as the date when it apparently occurred both me and my husband were across the country dealing with the fallout of the death of his father (we skipped this years christmas parties). I ended up responding back pointing out that it is completely impossible and neither of us know her. Her last message consisted of her calling me a liar and a bunch of other things. Nobody in my husband department has this name. We did however find someone with the same name who does work for the company through linked in. However they work for a completely different department in a completely different office in a state on the other side of the country. Since then we have been waiting for ether the police to show up, or my husband to be dragged into a HR meeting. Neither has happened, and it is really starting to hang over both of us. We are in NY, and the person claiming this lives in CA according to linkedin. I have saved copies of all relevant information. Can anyone give me some advice for what to do here? Do we just ignore it? Do we need to talk to a lawyer? Also to clarify something because my brain is exhausted we are married so just replace fiance with husband, but i don't think matters.

| Posted: 23 Aug 2020 05:35 AM PDT Thanks for taking the time to read. I have been in my home for three years, and before us, my brother in law lived here for 5. I am now continuing the battle with the Garbage Humans directly next door to us. The police are here multiple times a month to deal with them. As an example, in the past week we have had the fire and police here for two incidents. In the first, they were burning furniture in the backyard. We are located in the city, and the houses are ten feet apart at best. The yards are about .4 acre. Last night around 8pm, as I was sitting in my living room and was suddenly blinded by a flash and resounding thunderous boom (my husband guesses no less than a quarter stick of dynamite) and immediately stepped outside to see GN (garbage neighbors) on the front porch, and the front lawn was smoking. GN scampered back into their house like cockroaches. The neighborhood poured out of their houses to see what had happened. We all called 911. The police and fire responded. Once again nothing was done on their end. I am at my wit's end. I am constantly verbally assaulted on my own property. I'm afraid to let my children play in the yard for fear of them stepping on broken glass or finding a stray fentanyl baggie. They are renters, but I believe my favorite neighbors have traced the house to a relative. I own my home and it is paid for. I have the name, phone number, and address of almost everyone on the street for 7 houses in either direction and will be collecting signatures calling for GN to be removed. We will be attending the next town meeting with this information. What other information do I have the right to? Finding the landlord? Contacting that person? Can I request the 911 log of how many calls and when were made about the residence? I've started a notebook to keep track of anything I can record on my own. What legal course do I have here? We are in NY. Is there anything to be done or am I chasing a foolish dream? Do we sell and move? The police have suggested to call them for anything and everything, but continue to do nothing. No citations, no nothing. Please help. TL:DR How to handle the neighborhood scourge. [link] [comments]  |
| Property company wants me and roommates to may $3,200 in repairs Posted: 23 Aug 2020 04:55 AM PDT We recently moved out of the house and it had some damage however it's an old house, and we sublet from fraternity brothers that caused a lot of damage. Now they put charges for $3,204 on the pay portal and some of them seem like there's no way the repairs could cost that much. $1,050 for repainting and repairing damaged walls, almost $600 for replacing broken fridge components. Since this cost was just put on the pay portal I don't know about the security deposit and if it can be deducted from these costs. I was also told that the property company cannot charge us more money past the cost of the security deposit however I don't want to rely on this. Do we have any way out? Edit- I live in Virginia [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 23 Aug 2020 10:11 AM PDT Hi reddit. I (24F) live alone in a very modest apartment in the US. My apartment is on the ground level and contains the water main for the rest of the building. Recently (and I'm not sure of all the details on this, but it's what I understand) the state has asked my landlord to give them the number on the water meter to let them know how much water they're using a month. Thing is, despite owning this building for years she doesn't know where the water meter is. Queue the series of unfortunate events. She knocked on my door to let me know that they had to come in and try to find the water meter. She didn't give me warning and also didn't ask permission before bringing in two men who dug through my closet, throwing everything in there out, and cutting a hole in my wall to expose another part of the water main valve. Two days later I was making dinner when another man unlocked the door and let himself in. He told me I had a nice smile while getting way, way to close to me. He spent five minutes working on the water main valve and then asked me to come over to look at it. He asked me to bend over to see and then hovered directly behind me with his pelvis nearly against me, laughing. I stood up and told him to leave and he walked toward me until he cornered me, arguing that he needed to finish the job "before the end of the day" (it was nearly 7) I have a Joker painting on my wall and he then turned to it and said, "heath Ledger was such a great actor, it's too bad so many talented people have to go and blow their brains out." Frankly I was pissed and told him (though I own no weapons) that he needed to leave, and that I was armed. I emailed my landlord to tell her what happened and that I didn't feel safe in my own home. I told her that this was where I lived and it's disrespectful to violate my privacy like this. She replied that she understood and she would give me a warning, and that the water problem would be solved within the week. It's been a month and men have entered my apartment four more times. Twice they were here when I wasn't (no warning) and all of my things were haphazardly thrown out of my closet when I got home. The third time they came in to "utilize my outlet" which they used to plug in an extension cord to a shot vack. The extension cord reached across the street to our second building where more, and accessible outlets were located. Yesterday was my breaking point though. My landlord said it was over after I made another complaint and that people wouldn't come in here anymore. So I took a shower and went into my living room naked, because I'd left my robe on the couch. Three men unlocked the door and waltzed right in to my apartment, seeing me naked. Two left and one laughed before slamming the door. Reddit, I'm furious. This can't possibly be okay can it? I live here. Don't people have certain rights when it comes to their own home? What can I do? [link] [comments]  |
| Doctor didn’t remove hardware after surgery, explained mistake after statute of limitations ran out Posted: 22 Aug 2020 06:46 PM PDT I broke my ankle as a preteen in April 2009 and had surgery to get a "pin" in my ankle (looks more like a long screw). Recovery was fine, and the stitches were the dissolving kind, so I didn't need to get them removed. I followed up with the doctor who arranged the whole surgery about 8 weeks later to take the cast off and was told to wear a boot for a while, then I was good to go. Fast forward a few years and I have chronic aches in my ankle, particularly on humid days. I figured this may be arthritis, as he'd warned if I didn't have the surgery that arthritis could be a result of it going untreated. After a few years of on-and-off chronic pain, I went back to him in 2019 to see if I had arthritis. An assistant took me to his exam room, had me do an X-ray, and he came in to take a look with his young assistant. It was obvious he was trying to impress her - he kept trying to crack jokes while I was obviously concerned about potentially having arthritis in my early twenties. He takes one look at the X-ray and goes, "oh, you still have the pin in your ankle?" And I hesitated, with a bewildered "Yes?" He then says, "Oh, we should've taken that out!" and then LAUGHS and gives his assistant a look of "Whoopsies!" He tells me I can choose to live with the on-and-off pain or choose to have outpatient surgery to remove the screw. I say fuck this, he has absolutely no bedside manner, and I leave in shock. Then I'm billed $500 for the visit. I just went to another doctor yesterday for another opinion, and he took another X-ray. Immediately he said that he HIGHLY advises I get the screw removed, as metals in the body are magnets for bacteria, especially if I ever needed to have dental work done. And since I'm well under 50, he thinks it should be easy and quick. I'm so infuriated with the absentmindedness and callousness of my first doctor. He never scheduled a follow up surgery to remove the screw - meaning not once in the 2+ months of treatment did he consider I needed this removed. I want to sue him for malpractice, but this happened in New Jersey, where the statute of limitations is "any personal injury lawsuit, including a medical malpractice action, must be filed within two years of the date the 'cause of action' accrued." Since he didn't even inform me of his mistake until last year, would this be an exception? For more context, I checked his ratings today, and he has quite a few unhappy patients with other mistakes he's made. Please let me know if there are any alternative legal actions I can take as well.

| Posted: 23 Aug 2020 04:40 AM PDT Middle of January, I was traveling westbound on a 4 lane highway and a commercial tow truck not carrying a vehicle at the time slammed into my car which then a chain reaction and 10 other cars were damaged from being hit from behind or purposely trying to get out the way of what they saw happening in their rear view. It had been raining all day, but by 7pm EST the roads weren't terribly wet. The driver was simply on his phone and not paying attention. Later he tested positive for THC and alcohol and was said to be under the influence. No one else was found at fault. Some family friends, a son and father team, have a law firm and took the case pro bono as I mentioned and filed suit against the person operating the commercial vehicle, the company he is still driving for and employed by, and against the insurance company who insured the trucks. The issue is that the driver is indigent and the owner of the company (who has assets) has already dissolved one LLC (this one I'm speaking about) to avoid liability in another pending civil suit and this current LLC is "non-compliant" it's my belief that the company has already changed ownership and names, possibly now a foreign entity registered in another state. This company did something and had new DOT numbers given to them in the past because they were basically uninsurable. My lawyers dismiss this totally even when I show them proof of the owner of this company hiding assets in 2018 to avoid liability in another civil case (there's currently two pending and one closed against this company). What, if any are my options? The attorneys demanded a jury trial. The depositions have been taken with the exception on one (the owner). We had to hire process servers to even serve this company because they hid and kept the doors locked. If I'm able to work again the doctors say I will not be able to travel as an RN or make rounds on a 12 hour shift. Basically, it will be a desk job and I'm only 35 y/o. I was in the hospital for 2 + months which was dead in the middle of the Covid when we all thought it would kill everyone, so the anxiety of that was awesome. Call it intuition, but I'm afraid that we will end up with nothing or the bare minimum based on my research on this company. My lawyers say it will "be fine." I was the one that did the leg work and told my attorneys they were suing the wrong entity. They filed to amend it to add the real LLC to the suit and the judge signed it, but as I keep watching I'm afraid the company has changed names or ownership again, but I haven't been able to find it- YET. In one instance in the past this company traded it back and forth between family members until litigation was resolved. If it matters the other 10 cars involved settled out of court. While some left the scene in ambulance none sustained permanent injuries as I have. Any thoughts, questions, concerns would be helpful and I'd appreciate it. I'm not trying to financially ruin this company, I just want medical bills covered and such and those bills will be over what his insurance can cover given the other payouts and the fact this company has jumped from insurance provider to insurance provider because they keep getting dropped.

| Posted: 23 Aug 2020 02:44 AM PDT So for back story: We have only missed rent one time once due to banking errors. We had a 1 year lease that expired April 2020. That was also right as California started quarantining and shutting down businesses. Our property management company didn't mention anything about wanting us to move out so we assumed that they would send us another lease to sign an return for another year. But after a month or so we got nothing but silence. We've emailed them several times about trying to renew the lease and they have refused to respond. We still continue to make our monthly rental payments to them via cashier's check which they gladly take, but we have had several maintenance issues come up in the house that our former lease dictated that they would fix or at least pay for a professional to come fix. But they haven't answered any of our email requests for our lease status, it has been about a month since I submitted my most recent maintenance request and, just like with our lease, I've heard nothing. What are my rights as a tenant in this scenario? I don't want to make a stink for risk of being evicted, but we've made good faith efforts to renew our lease with this company and they have effectively ignored us. But now it's actively affecting our living condition and we don't have the money to go and hire professionals ourselves since we're just 3 students living off of financial aid refunds and part time jobs.

| Neighbor has left her 6yo daughter with me for 4 days. How to proceed? Posted: 23 Aug 2020 01:42 PM PDT Let me break it down in bullet points. - I live in a building that has a mixture of regular and subsidized housing. About a year ago, a young mother moved in next door with her daughter. I am a 40yo man, working from home through Covid. She has confided in me that she struggles with heroin addiction, but was getting clean. I lent a kind ear and gave her a few bucks here and there. I have no interest in exploiting her. Dad is completely out of the picture. Grandparents too. - It started with her just 'running to the store' and leaving her child with me. That was fine. We set up a little play area and she is happy/quiet cute little girl with a good imagination. - There were times when she would go out and wouldn't come back for several hours. This escalated to a few times leaving her overnight. I've converted my office into a bedroom and got a bed from Craigslist. I always make sure she has breakfast, lunch, dinner and take her to the park or to the beach. Mom never compensated me, and the way she talks, it sometimes makes it sound like she's doing me a favor. - The thing is, I've always kind of wanted a kid but never got around to it. We have bonded. I think that this is most love and structure this girl has gotten her entire life. I've enrolled her in school this fall, which is online learning. I was able to get her social security and health information. I'm university educated and we have structured learning time. She is incredibly bright. I've also looked into getting her enrolled in dance, since she has shown an interest. - Mom hasn't been back in 4 days. I contacted the LL and apparently she hasn't paid rent in 3 months. Her phone has been disconnected as well. - I know I should contact child services, but she has grown so attached I know it would break her heart. We would both be heartbroken to have her taken away and put into the system. [link] [comments]  |
| Guy broke in and stole from my grandfather not even 3 hours after died. Posted: 23 Aug 2020 11:39 AM PDT Somebody broke into and stole from by grandfathers house hours after he died. They stole an old rifle, pure gold coins, tools, and more. We are certain we know who did it and we're going to see if we can get a number for the gun but even if we do the police need a search warrant to check. Is there anything else we can do?

| Was rear ended by an uninsured driver while working Posted: 23 Aug 2020 11:25 AM PDT Bay Area, California I was rear ended by an uninsured driver yesterday while working. I went to the ER because as I departed the scene my back and shoulder began to hurt. I fully plan on going after this guy in small claims court. What are my rights and obligations following this accident? What county do I file the claim? County it happened in or the county I live in? I have already filed a claim with my insurance, told my boss (who told me to go to the hospital if need be), and have a police report (filed remotely after the fact, not during). Because it happened during work, what is my company's liability? I regularly drive for work, and was driving for work when this happened, do they need to help with my car damage? My boss said my company will file their own insurance claim, though I do not know what exactly it will cover. Thank you for reading [link] [comments]  |
| [NJ] I am a victim of doxxing, but not sure where to go from here Posted: 23 Aug 2020 09:18 AM PDT In the past I posted explicit content on Reddit and managed an OnlyFans for less than a year before thing started to go south. Apparently there's a group of young girls who were selling my content to older men for money, but this backfired as one of the men realized they were being catfished and contacted my family. This later turned into me being harassed by the man who was being catfished and harassed by some of the girls who threatened me and my family. For the past couple of months, they have created a series of fake accounts on Twitter and Instagram with my photos, my legal name, and my address. Not only was all of my personal information on these accounts, but they sent my explicit photos to my family members and friends. I tried going to the police when this intentionally started, but go figure, they were no help and told me there's nothing they can do. I looked into my state laws and while doxxing isn't illegal to a certain extent, they do reinforce cyber-bullying/cybercrime's. I am unsure if anything can even be done, but i'm tired of all of the harassment and bullying that has been going on for many months now. I am scared for my younger siblings and their safety and need help of any kind. Thanks. [link] [comments]  |
| [GA] I think my mom might have done something with a family friend's will? Posted: 23 Aug 2020 12:58 AM PDT A family friend just passed away, and he apparently named my brother and myself in his will. From what I know, he spent his last few months in a pretty bad way mentally and, according to my mom, he updated his will during that time. Soon after he passed, a few months ago, my mom contacted me to collect the money ASAP, but then I was told they were investigating a change in the will. Fast-forward to today, and I received a text from a member of his family, asking if I could talk to my mom, and if she had his original will. She says she does not, and told me not to talk to his family. I'm concerned that my mom might be doing or have done something sketchy with the will. My mom has a history of being manipulative and demanding unreasonable things from other people. In addition, she's been very defensive when I ask her questions and seems like she might be hiding something. Unfortunately I don't know much about the specifics of what's going on because I live on the other side of the country from all parties involved and communication has been vague at best. So I guess my big questions are:

| Posted: 23 Aug 2020 10:10 AM PDT So I work at a bar, the selling alcohol kind. I work as security, so I'm a bouncer. In March we closed due to the covid-19 quarantine. Wasn't a huge issue because all the employees got unemployment and we were fine. But now we've been given the okay by our city to start operating again after a drop in cases. On our first night back my boss told us we were all now 1099 contractors. My concern is if we are now contractors and we have to shutdown again if there is a spike in COVID-19 cases, I lose my sole source of income AND I am no longer eligible to claim for unemployment because I am a contractor. Is this legal? I've been reading up on the Fair Standards Labor Act and it seems as if even though we are 1099 contractors on the paperwork, we are still employees because: 1) we are an integral part of his business (security) 2) we are putting down no assets into the company, no investment into facilities or equipment 3) the degree of independent business organization and operation (there is none, without security he can't operate a bar, at least not safely) 4) the nature and degree of control by the principal (he makes all decisions) 5) our opportunity for profit/loss (There is no opportunity for increased profit, and no liability for loss, we're at a set hourly rate) 6) open market competition (there is none, security staff works as a team, not competing with other bars or ourselves) I am not legally inclined, I may be grasping at straws here, you can tell me better than I can, BUT, it seems to me that my boss is attempting to dodge paying state unemployment insurance tax by putting the tax burden on us.

| My child's father is a registered sex offender Posted: 23 Aug 2020 09:44 AM PDT I'm in Texas and I don't really know to go with this post hopefully this is the right sub and I can get some advice on what to do, please don't judge me to harshly I had no idea what he'd been doing for years. Back story in 2015 my ex and I had a baby boy not even a year later I found out he was being arrested for cp. I didn't know he had been doing it for years we were together for 4-5 years he never showed any signs that he into that crap. He was arrested and charged now fast forward it's 2020 and he just got out of prison, he wants to see his son. He insisted that he still has rights to his child and that he can get my son because, his contract states that he can't have contact with anyone that he offended. My main question is, is that true does he still have all the rights he had before? [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 23 Aug 2020 01:05 PM PDT I work in an adult family home my family runs. Our patients live with us and we provide 24 hour care. We are located in Washington. I'll preface this by saying not every person with a mental illness is violent and are often the victims of violence themselves. I provide one-on-one care for one of our patients who leans more on the violent side. When he gets very angry, he usually takes it out on something like the window, his chair, or the wall. My mom usually tries to calm him down but that means she becomes his next target. I work for my family 6 days a week and when I spend time with him, it calms him down and tires him out so he doesn't get angry and break something or hit my mom. I've been wanting to quit for about 2 months, but I can't leave my mom alone to be a human punching bag. In the past, we had another violent client who hit my mom. We called the police on him and afterwards, we were given a written citation and penalty for calling the police on him. According the the bureaucrat who told us this, we didn't have a good basis to call the police because my mom hadn't been hit hard enough and she was a caregiver and we could only call the police if he hit another patient or a random civilian. We can't discharge this patient and my mom can't leave because she is the only caregiver on staff for the evenings. We're a small family business that can't afford to hire more caregivers. I'm currently working on finding a replacement, but it is going slowly. Was the bureaucrat correct in saying we aren't allowed to call the police on our patients if they hit us? And what can we do to protect my mom from this patient? [link] [comments]  |
| Inheritance and estate sale issue with crap sibling Posted: 23 Aug 2020 01:03 PM PDT Hi Folks, Following up on my previous post: https://www.reddit.com/r/legaladvice/comments/gmthcx/my_mom_died_3_weeks_ago_without_will_what_steps/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share Location: MA My "sister" and I inherited our mom's house. We were recently approved by the probate court and initially trying to sell. To clarify the quotations around sister: She ran away when we were teenagers, disappeared for more than a decade with the occasional show up and ask for money. She's an active drug dealer and multiple convicted felon. Also, unverified, but clearly visible history of mental illness. Since our mother passed sister's been living at our mothers house, not paying any bills or mortgage, living the drug addled life she lives. Not that my "sister" ever paid any bills, but she still doesn't. She agreed to sell. Not at first, as she planned to start a business as an air bnb, which considering the state of the house is ridiculous. Also considering she's never worked a day in her life, she doesn't have the skills or tools necessary for any repairs. Now 3 months later she denies any offer that comes in and refuses any communication except for when she calls me when she's fucked up. She's offered me $20k, $40k and finally $50k, that her and her friends put together. They want to live there together and sell the house for more money in the future. I tell her I will speak to her in a sober light, then calls and texts are ignored. **The gist of it is: I want to sell our inheritance to have a nest egg for my future. Sister is refusing to sell. She has offered to low-ball buy me out, then sell the house in a few years for more money. Is there any option here? Are we going to get stuck with partitioning?** [link] [comments]  |

| Posted: 23 Aug 2020 11:29 AM PDT To start off, my fiancé hasn't seen her little brothers in a few years since we became adults because her mother didn't want her in that environment. There are two boys, the youngest is her half brother and the older one isn't related by blood at all. When she was over there the youngest one was really excited to show her his cardboard box that he turned into a wrestling ring because he has an obsession with the wwe. His mother tore it up in front of him and told him to keep his trash away. They hit him in the nuts, throw him across the room, and live in a mess. The older one says he'd rather kill himself than stay there any longer. We had them over the weekend and when my fiancé left me alone with the younger one we got him a little wwe ring from Walmart and he kept apologizing that he put the stickers in the wrong place. We had to take them back today and they both kept begging to stay. The older one (13) said he would rather kill himself than go back. While they were gone, the mother cleaned the house (apparently the first time it's been cleaned in a long time.) the youngest ones dad also believes that he would be better with us, and the older ones dad is dead and grandmother is an alcoholic. We have no idea where to start this procedure at and every day that goes by is another day where their livelihood is in danger. I really hope we can give them a better life, but I'm afraid to start it if the mother finds out and makes their life even worse if we can't get them. [link] [comments]  |
| [PA] My roommate sold my parrot while I was away Posted: 22 Aug 2020 04:51 PM PDT I had to go out of state for a family emergency and left my scarlet macaw at home. My roommate had agreed to look after her. I was gone for two weeks and when I came back she was gone. My roommate told me he sold her because he needed money. He won't tell me who he sold her to. He has offered to get me a cat from a shelter but I want my bird. What can I do? [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 23 Aug 2020 11:21 AM PDT I should also add that we don't know the owners of the two dogs as this just very recently happened. However, we have a video of the attack in which two unleashed dogs came out of nowhere and attacked our leashed dog (who was being walked on a hotel property). Apparently the police might know who the owner of these two dogs is, but they won't give us a name. Our dog is currently in an animal hospital after undergoing surgery for its severe injuries, but the bills are adding up fast. Let's say we live in Queens, NY and the pets supposed owners live in Long Island NY. How would I even go about getting the names of the owner of these two dogs if the police are reluctant to provide them? As someone that has never had to take legal action against anybody before, where would I even begin? I'd appreciate any insight that can be provided. [link] [comments]  |
| [WI] Ex-Girlfriend is bankrupting me and my family with false Restraining Orders Posted: 23 Aug 2020 12:31 PM PDT In May, I was investigated for a false rape accusation that my ex-girlfriend made after I had broken up with her. I did my very best to be civil and nice during the breakup, even as she verbally abused me. This helped me prove my innocence to that accusation. This alone cost me and my family almost $10,000. Once she lost that, she started to file restraining orders. Each restraining order cost me $2,500 to retain a lawyer. So far I've had 2 that she hadn't shown up to the court date for and were therefore dismissed. A third one has just been filed and I don't know that I'm going to be able to afford a lawyer this time. My family - mom, dad, brother, and grandmother - spent their life savings fighting for me. They're out of money and so am I. I was just about to graduate and become a nurse. This is going to prevent me from ever getting a job in the medical field. She and her family have money to file everything in the book over and over again. This is leaving me with no defense and myself and my family hopeless. What can I do now? I'm really at my wit's end. How is this legal? Is there anything I can do to save myself or do I just need to succumb to my economic situation? I am lost, scared, and will forever live with anxiety even if I get through this just waiting for never ending lawsuits to land in my lap. [link] [comments]  |
| Landlord attempting to evict based on dirty fridge (MD) Posted: 23 Aug 2020 01:53 AM PDT Hi everyone, A bit of a backstory here: I live in the basement of a house in Maryland, rented out by an older woman who lives upstairs. We signed an original one year lease last August but then orally agreed to go month to month without signing any new documents. My landlord told me she has never had a tenant stay longer than a year and would like to hire cleaners to come into my apartment and clean. I said sure thing, and told her I would be out of the house during that time in order to stay out of their way. My landlord texts me and tells me that she saw that my fridge was too dirty for her liking (old food, cluttered, etc. which, to be fair, it is indeed dirty) and has given me two weeks notice to vacate the property. She came into my apartment without giving me 24 hours notice, as required according to the original lease. What are my rights here? [link] [comments]  |
