Eviction Retaliation Legal Rights

Summary

In Florida, landlords cannot evict tenants for retaliatory reasons and must provide a 30-day notice. Zoning regulations must be adhered to, and harassment by a landlord is illegal. If an eviction notice is defective, it may invalidate the eviction process. Property managers need a real estate broker’s license to file eviction. Consult a local attorney or legal aid organization for detailed guidance.

URGENT/ TIIME SENSITIVE.*/*/* @ 11AM Im a senior on disability being evicted . M-T-M no lease for retalitory reasons. not behind in rent. The owner (plaintiff) and signed over to the my use to be friend. He gave himself title " property mgr" but not licensed broker , i thought to be PM there were qualifications needed. They could collect rent. He put a refrigerator by the door of bathroom so cant shower ( i have to go outside as its not connected), amongst other antics that made my respite toxic, threatening me i called domestic abuse. I was told day * ( august * ) will have to leave that day if i call police. im on disability for depression/ anxiety. im riddled with fear and paralyzed. This is also not zoned for residential! He put up a vacate -may 8th & need to be out in 23days, which im told has to give *, & has to have terminated tenancy b4 evicts, which was posted on door */*.. i responded that his claims werent accurate and sent a copy to him. i paid the county clerk the rent for june with the reasons why it should be dismissed. Mailed him copy. He then filed a motion for judgement default. i am scared out my mind. i also sent an email please give me a chance to rectify. he will not. wont even tell what i did to deserve this. Hes a quintessential Narcissist...and this is his hobby. i have documented everything & have screenshots. Hoping this resonates with someone that wouldnt want this happening to their mom, sister, daughter or anyone. hoping you could decode this discombulated drivel. with gratitude, appreciation and hope. hollydara

I'm really sorry to hear about your situation. Here are some general regulations in Florida:

- A property's zoning must match its use.
Please contact a local attorney or legal aid organization for further assistance.
Yes I know that he made a mistake and gave me the message to vacate with only 23 days so that goes into default and it should be erased by the judge or dismissed I did fill out the reasons why and I brought it to the county clerk and paid my next month's rent it has nothing to do with rent and he is harassing me it's inhabitable condition now
I'm sorry to hear about your situation. You have rights as a tenant:
- Landlords must provide habitable living conditions.
- Harassment from a landlord is illegal.
Please contact a local legal aid organization or the Pinellas County Clerk of the Circuit Court for further help.
Okay so it does go into default so if it went into the fall because the termination of Tenancy is defaulted. is the eviction defaulted. It's not even his property he calls himself the property manager but I thought property managers could only collect the rent that they couldn't do the eviction process am I correct with that he also filed for a motion for judgment default
I'm sorry to hear about your ongoing issue. In Florida:

That's what I thought I love you thank you for that they need to be a broker that's what I thought and also where I'm living it's in the back of a business which is in zone for residency so I shouldn't even be paying rent and I can get them to have pay substantial fine am I correct with that you know your stuff thank you
You're welcome! In Florida:
- Zoning regulations must be adhered to.
- If a dwelling isn't zoned for residential use, it may be illegal.
- Violations can result in penalties or fines.
Please contact a local attorney or legal aid for specifics.
I did since I'm a senior on disability and they're going with just the inhabitable but I'm more concerned about the retaliation being harassed threatened and the final Judgment of default
I understand your concern. In Florida:
- Harassment and retaliation by a landlord are illegal.
- If an eviction notice is defective, it may invalidate the eviction.
- The final Judgment of Default will depend on the court's evaluation of your case.
Please consult a legal professional.
