It'll depend on who "owns" the leak. If it's the other tenant (overflowing sink for instance), then there's your defendent. If it's a broken pipe, it's the owner of the property. The landlord will likely not be personally liable (unless he's also the owner), but will act as owner's representitive. (Or you can subpeona the owner :} ) You're almost certainly going to wind up in court over this one though, so prepare.

Is a landlord in California required to provide a tenant with a door to a garage?

I'm no lawyer but... The simplest answer is no. If it had no door when you agreed to rent it, then you can't expect him to improve it after you sign. If it had one but it fell off, then he must repair it. If there is a door from garage to house that has no lock on it, then you may be in a position to demand either a lock on that door or a door on the garage.


Do you have to give your landlord notice when you're having a garage sell?

This depends on the terms of your lease, if you have one, and the type of dwelling you're living in. In most detached homes it shouldn't be necessary to tell your landlord unless it's otherwise specifically stated on the lease.
