The Minsky Moment

Quote from: Razgovory on February 27, 2025, 05:26:21 PMI'm just going to move.  There are other places to live.

That's cool.

But there's nothing wrong suing the bastards.  At least that's how I see it.

Well because lawyers are often like this:

Quote"This is a Russian warship. I propose you lay down arms and surrender to avoid bloodshed & unnecessary victims. Otherwise, you'll be bombed."

Well, you are a lawyer.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Remember there are a lot of lawyers out there like JR and I who do pro bono work for that very reason.

I encourage you to take a look to see what resources are available to you at no cost.

Raz I don't know the specifics of your case, but if the landlord failed to repair something serious, you could be entitled to a rent rebate.  Something you might be able to get even if you intend to leave anyways.
