I think this topic has come to an end; my landlord isn't actually suing me, as he'll most likely just lose or get outed as a scammer. By the time I can go after him, this thread will probably be locked by lack of responses. If anything major happens and this thread is still open, I'll update it. If not, I'll see if it's worth it to start a new thread. Your responses have all been real funny, and I thank everyone for their support :)

We should keep this thread alive, just in case its needed...

farewell thread, you will be missed

So how much to rent Farah again?

4 cookies

In ancient Egypt there was a young girl with black hair named Farah. Being 12 years old she caught the eyes of many men. At night she used to leave her home, unbeknownst to the parents.

The rumours say the whole village had her and she was shared among all men.

That is Farah's rental story.

Farah,

All I can say - you should have reported the scammer to the police a long time ago. Even if you didn't yet, you should do it asap, cause this case, while to you is partially funny, next tenants may not be that lucky. Even if you don't go to court, a police record of a tax avoidance and money extortion on this landlord may help any future victims. Furthermore - depending on how much spare time you have - suing him and taking back what you paid so far for lawyers and to the landlord himself is a thing worth considering. Informing the guild of lawyers or the police about the lawyer even if he commited a felony by taking a client with a conflict of interest (cause the conflict of interest began not with the continuation to work with you, but with being hired by your opponent and is borderline unethical) depends on many factors - 1) was it against the law 2) what was the nature of your contacts - was it just consulting, or was he supposed to be your defeder etc. plus what are the possible outcomes - for the lawyer and for you.. in some countries lawyers are a very solidary group which defends their fellow lawyers even when it's very inapropriate.. you could have ended up blacklisted for future cases...

just my 0.02

I don't know how other countries work but my experience in the USA, is that the police will do nothing as they consider it wholly a civil matter. There are departments to inspect and attempt to enforce housing codes and regulations but they are generally understaffed and very under powered. The one time contacting a housing authority helped the apartment building fixed the issue and didn't raise my rent the previous time I contacted them years earlier the apartment building fixed the issue but then raised my rent 10% the next month, and another 15% a few months later forcing me to leave, I was on a month to month lease so they could raise the price every 60 days.

Keeping the thread alive. :)
