    Retaliatory eviction

    The RO is just for our dwelling only and no contact with her. He's also under investigation by HUD for Habitability violations as well as civil rights violations. I believe my wife was told that there could not be an eviction while the investigation is in process. We are currently awaiting a...

    Retaliatory eviction

    There was no notice given prior most likely due to him being under criminal investigation by the police department for three counts of violating a restraining order she has on him as well as stalking.

    We won our case and, paid our attorney a retainer and won our case and attorneys fees. However, we now need to collect our judgment and attorneys fees so we are still out of pocket until we are able to collect.

    Landlord refuses to repair

    Agreed. We have already been in contact with our local tv stations "action line" as well as our council member for this district and have found that the wheels of justice turn extremely slow. We have also filed a grievance with HUD.

    Landlord refuses to repair

    Our understanding at this point is that it is currently being sent to the county's legal department for review. The court orders are under our names.
