I have been evicted by the state of Hawaii. I was given three days to remove my personal property. Am I legally entitled to 30 days to remove my personal property?
Hey ****! In Hawaii, when you're evicted, the landlord typically must store your personal property for at least 30 days. However, specific procedures can vary. It's essential to review your eviction notice and any relevant state laws or consult a local legal expert for precise details.
Prior to being evicted, the state turned off the water and electricity to the property. Was that illegal in the state of Hawaii?
Hey ****! In Hawaii, landlords are generally prohibited from using "self-help" measures like turning off utilities to force an eviction. This could be considered illegal. It's important to consult with a local attorney to understand your rights and options in this situation.
