What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Washington
I've lived at peace in an apartment complex for 8 years now with zero trouble, but we've gotten a new manager that doesn't follow the rules and she's become quite a headache for everyone. Our building is a secure building that guests have to buzz the apartment they're visiting to be let in, but the new tenant above my apartment has given her ex husband a security key and he comes and goes as he pleases. The leases states no overnight guests for more than 14 nights in a 52 week period, and he's been here regularly for over a month and a half now that we've noticed, and probably longer before we started noticing.
This woman has a 12 year old daughter living with her upstairs and they argue constantly, they curse each other like sailors and fight all the time making tons of noise way past the quiet hours. A neighbor across the hall phoned the police one night when the woman and child were arguing and the girl was screaming, "stop, stop, you're killing me, help .. help!" A week later we called the police, we live under them and heard the girl screaming for help again. We believed we were doing the right thing letting the police check on her safety during this huge sounding disturbance.
Anyway, the manager blew a fuse today when her boyfriend, who lives with her allowed his Pitbull, something bigger than is allowed here, to poop all over the stone walkway that we have to use to take our pets out. When I dared to say anything about it I was screamed at in the hallway in front of others and my tenancy threatened with a statement saying, "I'd better not make anymore false police calls concerning the nice lady in #29 or I should be rethinking my tenancy!" First off I didn't make any false police calls, I only ever made one for a child I thought was in trouble, and secondly I've never had my tenancy threatened before, I've been a perfect tenant for the eight years I've been here. Did this manager slander me by shouting in front of everyone that I'd made false police calls?
