Legal Answers
41 Questions Answered
- Q. Eviction notice for alleged lease violation in Ohio
- A: If you are a voucher holder subject to HUD conditions, there are very specific definitions in HUD leases as to when a landlord can properly evict you re having people over. HUD also has specific definitions for what constitutes a "guest" or "other person under the tenant's control." See 24 CFR Section 5 (Subsection A). If I'm misunderstanding and you aren't in subsidized housing, you should definitely still review your lease with an attorney; contact your local Legal Aid office at a minimum.
- Q. Can landlord evict me for repairs after paying rent, lease ends in June?
- A: There are very limited circumstances under which a landlord can evict you if you have a lease for an amount of time. If you paid rent and did not otherwise violate the lease, they can choose not to renew your lease, but they don't have an action for eviction on this information. You should definitely speak with a tenant defense attorney in your area, or your local Legal Aid office for representation.
- Q. How to pursue legal action against Ever Driven for unsafe child transportation in Ohio?
- A: First, I think you should find another method of transportation for your child. If they aren't taking your daughter's safety seriously, that's a huge red flag. Second, if you signed a contract with them that promises they will not do these specific things, they've breached that contract. However, it will be difficult to file a lawsuit without showing damages, which from what you've stated here may be an obstacle to obtaining relief in court. You should consult with an attorney to determine next legal steps.
