Pls, people of this forum, good advice is needed from the legal gurus in the house. A friend of mine is worried and needed what steps to take concerning this issue below: He has a challenge pay his rent. This is due to the fact that the job he is doing doesn't bring in much. But he still try to balance up the arrears gradually. He pleaded with the landlord to accept the rent of 4 months out of 8 months and promised him that he would look for the remaining ASAP. This happened on early February this year and the landlord accepted. On 2 of March, this my friend received called to come to the human right Dept. in a police station. On getting there, he was told that his landlord reported to them the he is owing a rent of a year. He became confused but latter explained to them how he just paid him for 4 months and that he's only owing for 4 months. The landlord was called to come to the police station to confirm but he said he's very far away. They agreed they will be called the following day. The following day, there was no invitation. After a week, a 2 month quit notice was issued from the human right Dept to this guy that he must vacate the apartment by end of May or face serious legal action. Now, the question is these: 1. Does human right dept issue quit notice on behalf of landlord? 2. Is quit notice not supposed to be 6 months from when it was issued irrespective of whether the tenant is owing arrears or not? Please, legal and sensible advice is needed. |

Why are people like this? You have a legal problem and then you intend getting solutions from I.T Consultants/Engineers, students, house wives etc. Get a lawyer or talk to one. Lawyers do render help... where they can! |
