I seriously doubt his lawyer is going to argue that the roommate was the only tenant in August based on who paid the rent.  That's a dead-end argument.  Unless you gave him WRITTEN NOTICE that you were moving out at the end of July, he has nothing here.  The name on the check is irrelevant.

I would amend #3 to say, "On August 31, 2013, the last day of the lease, the defendant entered the apartment without prior written notice and threw away my remaining belongings."




bravo. just follow enlil's advice and you'll have this guy nailed to the wall.

well, trial was today.  won't know how it truly went until a couple weeks from now when the magistrate mails me her decision.

overall though, it seems like it went in my favor.  i had all the evidence for the initial claim.  his lawyer objected to my written appraisal from a professional sculptor, but he was overruled.

as for his evidence of $2300 worth of damage, he only had a few pictures of a dirty fridge, stove, and basement.  other tenants also had access to the basement, and none of the shit down there was mine, so the magistrate seemed to laugh at that assertion.  i also offered up the pictures that i took that same day showing the entire apartment cleaned and immaculate, so his claim of 2 people working 8 hour days for a week to clean the place, at $45 an hour, hopefully goes out the window.

i got the plug in for punitive damages, but we'll see what happens.  overall it was very low key and cut and dry.  the lawyer seemed somewhat blindsided since i didn't talk to him at all until the first time today.  he was sitting on one side of the story that was completely inaccurate.

his lawyer tried to settle with me before the hearing, offering me $500 instead of my claimed $2100.  I basically told him I would rather tell my story and get nothing than to let that asshole walk away thinking he got away with it for only $500.  i got the impression that the lawyer realized his client was a tool when i overhead him telling the landlord, "legally speaking, what you did, is completely out of bounds..." and "it was easier to talk with him than with you."

I'll keep you guys updated.

Good for you. I'm a landlord and I hate shitbags that do crap like your landlord did.

You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity. What one person receives without working for another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for that my dear friend is the beginning of the end of any nation. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it. ~ Adrian Rogers

You have the right to be secure in your own home.

That's all you need to say to the judge.

Bring proof of residency for the month he threw out all your stuff

Also bring an itemized list of everything destroyed with what you value each item at.

What he did was criminal.

Police report and voicemails are just icing on the cake when he tries to counterclaim.

When you talk to the judge keep it as short and sweet as possible.

You want to be clear and concise when you talk to the judge

Long stories will confuse the judge.

If he says you damaged the place claim the damage was done while he was throwing away your shit.

I see it as an easy case to win if you keep your cool.

Also when the judge makes you two deliberate before the trial tell him you want 5,000 unless he wants to be embarrassed in front of a judge.

still no word.  occasionally looking up the case on the state's website as well, guessing that i'll see the decision there before i get a letter in the mail.  no luck yet.  stay tuned.

i got absolutely nothing.  i guess there was no way to prove the value of the items that were destroyed.  his counterclaim was thrown out also.

after all the fucking hoops i had to jump through... i have completely lost faith in how things are supposed to work.
