A landlord is required to give you a 3 day notice and state the reason why on the notice. If she accepted rent then obviously there needs to be a violation of the lease terms. Since you didn't pay your share, she is required to give back any money to whatever agency paid on your behalf, then she is to post a notice or hand it to you whatever your state requires.

As far as you are concerned you do have an obligation to pay your rent however if there is a dispute with the landlord, you can make the payment to the housing court in your area and they will hold the money until a hearing takes place.

most housing courts have people that can assist you and tell you what to do, although they can't give you "legal" advice as they are not attorneys.

Call your local legal aid and make an appointment to see them to take legal action. Contact your local Better Business Bureau. Save all originals of any documents you have letters you write and keep jornal of all persons you talk to as well as day date time. Contact the rental assistance and let them know they have paid money to an apartment owner fraudulently. Every state requires at least a 30 day notice of eviction. Nothing about this is legal. Good luck I will keep you in my prayers.

Tell the landlady that her actions were not within State Regulations and that you will get a lawyer if she doesn't resolve it and pay for any damages of your belongings.

It is not legal and you should either take them to small claims and sue them or speak to an attorney to discuss all of your rights as a tenant. In order to be evicted they have to serve you notice. I believe what they have done is illegal and you should confront them for this.

no u have to recieve a written notice first... its the law

I would call the police and file a report for breaking and entering and theft

If YOU talked to your landlord before you left, leaving enough money to pay all your rent for the time you would be gone, you would have a claim. If you left 'talking to the landlord' up to your neighbors, did not pay for the months you were gone, and did not stay in contact with your landlord, you DID abandon your rental. Landlords must bring in rent money in order to have their OWN money to pay their bills. When you moved in, did you sign a paper saying when you would pay each month? Did you pay on or before that time each month you were gone? When you leave a rental, do not explain to the landlord what is going on, don't keep the rent agreement up to date, you are considered to have abandoned the rental, and having left your belongings. The belongings are important to you, but, to a landlord, they are just things in the way that the landlord must get rid of in order to rent the rental to the next renter. I don't think you would like to move in to a rental and find someone else's things all over the place, would you? Many times, landlords have to pay to have the things dumped at the garbage.The landlord must rent out the rental, and if the person the things belong to has not taken care to put the things in storage or put them in someone else's care, the things are all just 'in the way' for the landlord. In CA, you would be considered a tenant who abandoned the rental. You may still owe the landlord money, in fact.
