QUESTIONS

  • I have a 2 yr old baby girl, I went to jail for 28days on a driving on suspended during this time her grandmother went and got a temporary emergency custody order she wouldn't let me have her when I came home but 5 months ago she gave her back to me I have had her home with me since is this temporary order still good?
  • I am a condo owner, I live in the unit and rent out my 2nd bedroom to someone. We have a lease, and we have also been working under the agreement that we switch off paying for things that we share, for example paper towels, light bulbs in the common areas, etc. However, she is now refusing to purchase a new furnace filter, saying that is a 'maintenance item' and is my responsibility. I think this falls under the 'damages due to negligence' clause in the lease. I plan to take the cost of the filters out of her last month's rent and her lease-end date be moved up accordingly. Is that legal?
  • Our property management company charged us outrageous amounts for various things when we moved out. Are we able to ask for reciepts of actual cost?

Is there a way to break my lease because the landlord has not provided a "safe and habitual environment?"
