What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? FL
Here is a shortened version of what has been happening.
My partner and I moved into an Apartment in Port Saint Lucie in Feb. 2014 at that time one of the neighbors was being rude and aggressive. He had been playing his music loudly at all hours of the day and night. He would tailgate me when I would leave the neighborhood and had allowed his dog to bite my dog. We had made multiple contacts with property management about these situations. They had only tried to resolve the conflict one time with us by having a meeting with us and instructing us to call the Port Saint Lucie Police Department to come out and handle this neighbor.
On Aug. 29 2014 we contacted the Port Saint Lucie Police department to file an anonymous noise complaint as his music could be heard clear enough to hear the lyrics and had been going on for over an hour. After the police had come and gone this neighbor then came out of his unit and began to threaten my partner and myself. He said, “You’re Done! You’re finished! You better move! Latin Kings! You F*** with one, you F*** with all of us!” We then called the police to come back out as we then hid in the innermost room of our unit out of fear for our lives. After a few minutes, He then exited his front door and began to climb the stairs to our front door as he was yelling “You’re dead bitch! Latin Kings! You’re Dead Bitch!” At that time he was then arrested and the police had shortly thereafter come up to our apartment and taken our official statements. That same night I was called a Dyke and ****** and people within the neighbor’s apartment were stating how badly they wanted to beat my ass and how much they hate people like me and my partner, how were just trouble.
My partner and I then fled the apartment complex that night out of fear and were not able to return to the apartment complex for 7 days when the apartment complex property manager was finally able and willing to meet our demands for a transfer to a new unit at NO COST OR FEES to us and he would need to hire movers as well. He did hire two men with a trailer and truck to move us on Sept. 7 2014 into a different building at the front of the complex. For no transfer fee, no application fee, no deposits and no pet fee. However he is now trying to charge us a cleaning fee because he did not walk through the unit after we left the unit, which is frustrating because we cleaned the unit after we moved out.
The property manager also assured us that the neighbor would be removed from the property as soon as possible and that we would no longer have any issues with him. However, this neighbor is currently driving past our new apartment building at least 2-3 times a week since we have moved. The way the property is laid out this man does not need to do this. We have been informed that there may be security cameras on the property that could show this. It is bothersome because it is furthering our fear because his gang threats are terrifying and I am having a hard time sleeping and I am always scared to take my dog outside and even go on my porch to smoke a cigarette because I don’t know if he has a gun. I don’t know if he is going to hit his gas pedal because I am walking my dog so he can run me over. And I have seen nothing in the court records to prove that my property manager is trying to evict this man. There is nothing when I search the apartment complex name or their corporate company name or the neighbor’s name that shows up.
I also feel like this is completely unfair. This man assaults me and my partner and now we had to move and moving is an inconvenience in and of itself. Plus we had to stay out of our apartment for 7 days because we were too afraid to go home. Now to make it worse as we are trying to return to normal this guy is still trying to intimidate us by driving by our building. I feel like a child by saying it’s not fair but I just don’t know what else to say – it’s not. This guy can say the things he said to us and live a free life without punishment and now I have to pay fees to my apartment complex because I HAD TO MOVE. It doesn’t seem fair to me. And I have to sleep uneasily at night and I have to look over my shoulder everywhere I go and wonder if today is the day this psycho will jump me or try to kill me? Or what if he is in a gang? Will his gang come rape me or Kill me? Is he driving by my new home because he is going to do a drive by shooting?
Anyways, I am hoping that consulting a lawyer could maybe help. My friends said I should that maybe I have a case against someone. I just don’t know what type of case or against who.
