    Always give your payments in person and get a receipt right away, having a witness helps

    For absolutely no reason.They ran him for warrants in which they had none at the time,
    But his parole office placed absolutely on him right then for abscounding and it was proven later that he had reported to his PO.Now I'm getting evicted.She also called the police to my home while was not present.She called out of retaliation.Why would she call for nothing.
    Also she had been using her personal relationship with the police to intimidate and harass me.Since she is no longer a manager there have been no police around.Can I beat this eviction and sue the manger for calling the police and then giving them the keys to my house after she provoked them?

    First why is she doing this ? But you go to the eviction hearing and present your evidence, with all courts, it is hard to say what they will do.

    You may sue the police for entering your home, without a warrant or permission from your child's fathers PO, they can not just enter your home. The manager does not have that authority, I am not sure you can sue her unless you can prove her police reports are all false.

    From your description of the situation, there's definitely some misconduct on her part.

    As a landlord what I have to question is why on earth would she be so intent on evicting you? If you pay your rent on time, take care of your apartment, and generally follow your lease and the property rules, what possible problem could this woman have with you? Good tenants are hard to come by... you don't just try to evict someone for no reason.

    Doesn't make much sense.

    If you read through the OP's other posts it starts to come together - questions about being on parole, boyfriend arrested in this same apartment when OP not present (don't know if management was aware, don't know if it's a problem with him living there), HUD housing. Management has wanted OP "out" for months.

    The rest remains fill in the blanks - but OP hasn't been happy with answers to other questions.
