Landlord siding with harrasser

Post Reply New Topic

My landlord has threatened to evict me if I report my harrasser neighbor to the Police (although he knows the harrasser has already been convicted for serious threats, harrassment and deception of weak women in the past, including having a romantic relationship with a minor 45 years his junior). I was wondering if, after I move to a new place after the eviction, it'd be a good idea to sue my landlord for damages he caused me by siding with a criminal against me? I know I may not have enough proof of the harrassment and/or the reason for the eviction to win.

I would talk to a lawyer and see if the landlord can evict you for that. It may be illegal for him to threaten that so the law would get him and you wouldn't have to even bother with suing. I'd be looking for a new place anyway. Whats the guy done to harrass you?

If your going to take legal action, you have to take it now while the situation is still ripe.

If you move out, you can't sue him for evicting you or anything because you moved out.

If you report the harassment and he evicts you, you should have a good case against him for illegal eviction, assuming you pay rent on time and everything and have a written lease.

Of course, consulting a lawyer is always the best bet, I am not one.
