Can I break my lease (clarified)

[HomeGuru]

Despite what you people have assumed about me, I am a very intelligent woman. I did not need anyone to tell me that my situation is a difficult or dangerous one. If I unwittingly included the emotional aspects of my situation in my clarification I apologize. I was merely trying to relay the situation as it has presented itself to me. All I was looking for on this site was a little info on breaking a lease in California (does it go on your credit report, can the company sue, does it affect future lease agreements, etc...). I am in the process of removing myself from this unfortunate and potentially dangerous situation and merely needed a little guidance. I don't think that's so unreasonable, do you?

Dear fishy,
the point I was merely making is that you posting on this website requesting help with respect to your particular circumstances. After reading your 2 posts and analyzing the issues and situation, I deemed it important to convey to you the information that I responded with.
You then proceeded to disreguard my excellent advice to the point of even being argumentative. Who has the law degree here? You stated "What he has done thus far is not grounds for filing a restraining order." So rather than heed my advice, you decide you want to act like an attorney and give incorrect advice to yourself. Very dangerous.

If you had asked specifically those above-mentioned questions with respect to breaking a lease, I would have given you answers.

You merely needed a little guidance and I gave you a lot of guidance.

And that's the end of todays sermon and The Word according to HomeGuru.
Please stand and let's sing together, Yes Jesus Loves Me.

Unfortunately this girl is a little mish guided. It's typical for someone in denial to first request help then deny the need for it.

And I would like to clarify something for the poster. The first three posts contined nothing that was directed at you personally. Sure we created some humor from your name but it was not intended to be directed at you. We do these things to be humorous. Imagine how boring and drab this site would be without a little humor. A little infantile, perhaps, but wihtout it, this site would not exist.

I mean really. This was just innocent fun, nothing more.

David, I guess it just, and I quote from my friend Don Henley, it's just the end of the innocence.

Dear Mishy,

I have great sympathy for your problem, and I want to urge you to follow the lawyer's advice to put a stop to what is going on in your life.

I am also a landlord, in California as a matter of fact. I am not a lawyer, but I have some knowledge of how things work out here. I have also had tenants in your situation.

You showld get a restraining order right away. You may be seriously in danger.

Getting a restraining order is easy in California. You don't need an attorney. You can go to the clerk of the Superior Court nearest to your home, get a form which is a petition for a restraining order, fill it out and submit it paying a fee. You can check a box asking for a temporary restraining order, which the judge will sign and make it effective immediatly, even while you are waiting for a hearing. If you cannot get the judge to order your boyfriend off the premises immediatly, you should leave, go to a hotel or a friend, or anywhere else until the hearing which will probably be in a matter of a few weeks. You need only to show the judge that you have been abused, even verbally, and what it is doing to your life, and I believe that the judge will be responsive to your problem. I think that he will order your friend out of the premises, if he did not do that when you first filed your petition, and he will forbid him to come within a certain distance of you for maybe 3 years. If he violates that order, call the police immediatly. Your friend will go to jail immediatly if he is found within that distance of you.

Don't worry about your lease. Get this jerk out of your life and out of your home, rent out the small bedroom if you like, and put your life back together.
