This depends on whether the landlord has at least four properties for rent. Oftentimes you can take him to court yourself and win, or in the case of the latter you can file a complaint with HUD, who can then sue him on your behalf.
Yes.
Possibly.
yes
Landlord has to take you to court to get you out and then it will take 30 days before you have to be out.
Yes.
If you have a lease your landlord would have to take you to court to have you kicked out of the apartment. If you are a month to month tenant then the landlord can request that you vacate with 30 days notice.
Yes. If a landlord later determines that you damaged his property he can take you to court. A landlord is not required to assess damages under the deposit if they would prefer to return your deposit and sue you for more. The deposit laws are generally intended to avoid lawsuits from every landlord at the end of every tenancy.
I asked my other roommate about it and he said it was for my landlord, Meanwhile he refuses to take my rent money and he said why I didn't go to court.
Save the money in an escrow account and let the landlord take the tenant to court. This can be explained to the Judge
No. Taking a washer and/or dryer is stealing. To force your landlord to return your deposit you must take him to court.
It is unseemly that a landlord can charge a tenant for other than the items listed in the lease. You can pay them and take your landlord to landlord-tenant court for reimbursement, or you can approach a landlord-tenant advocacy to find the answer that you want.
If this helps any, a landlord is no different in terms of small claims or other civil court matter. If there are grounds to sue then you may do so. Check your state's Statute of Limitations laws to see how much time you have to sue a landlord or anyone else. Landlord and Tenant issues are only applicable to eviction proceedings, not small-claims court or other civil courts.
