I have been living in this house for over a year now and cleaning house for my rent. Now all the sudden the owner of the house wants to raise my rent. I received a letter stuck on my bed room door from his lawyer saying rto appear in court for failure to pay back rent, and to pay attorney fees, court cost and damages etc. A month ago when he told me I was now to pay 10.00 a week more he also locked me out of the laundry room and any storage area I may need. He does not take care of the property as to where it is save and has caused me both physical and emotional problems. I don't see why I should pay addition rent under these conditions I would of never moved in here if this was the case at time of move in. We have no legal written agreement at all never had. Can I be liable for the back rent of what he saids is40.00 plus court costs etc. Even if I was not served with any legal documents and only had a note from him telling me to pay the extra rent or move out?
