| Is this a legal 30 day notice and if not what are my options? |
| I have received an eviction notice from my landlord. It is a notice to vacate. It does not say 30 day notice and it does not give me 30 days. It is dated Feb.6 and states I should be out Feb. 29. It was hand delivered by landlord. How legal is this? Can I be served with an Unlawful Detainer after Feb. 29? Does the landlord have to serve me with a ''proper'' 30 day notice? If so when will this notice begin, March 6 or 30 days from new 30 day notice? I was served this notice 3 days after returning from hospital after having hip surgery so it is almost impossible for me to move. This was supposed to be a temporary rental (verbal agreement) of 3 months or longer. We also had a verbal agreement before I moved in that if I had hip surgery that I would be able to stay until I recovered. Landlord reneged on that agreement when I returned from hospital. Thank you in advance! |
| What are the laws regarding giving keys back to landlord? |
| I was the tenant of an apartment. I moved out 2 weeks ago. My landlord (who was also my roommate -- I was subletting the apartment from her) has not given me my security deposit back. I also kept the keys to the apartment because we were very rushed to clean and wanted to go back in to continue cleaning at a later date. I have every intention of returning the keys, after she returns my security deposit. My question is, is there a law that states that you have to give the keys at the date you exit the premises? What are the laws surrounding returning keys to the landlord? Thank you. |

| I have being with trouble to pay my rent since I closed my business and haven''t being able to find a job yet. I try asking her to wait until I am able to pay it full to her but she served my with a 3 days eviction notice on February 13. I found out that the unit that I live is not registered. That the building have 9 units and 9A does not exist. I found out that she supposed to pay for me to relocate and tried to make an agreement but she insist on getting the full money from me ($5K). I made a report and the Department of Homeland Security will supervise on Monday. She then file the complain with the Beverly hills courthouse on Jan 31st and delivery me the paper on the evening of Feb 2nd. Now I feel trapped and don''t know what to do. I can not afford a lawyer since I currently don''t have a source of income. what are my rights? What should I do next?
