I'm even thinking..that was the over-night guest.
The landlord is wrong for evicting the plaintiff based off of someone else’s word ( no proof). Also, how you gone tell grown ups they can’t have overnight guests without asking the landlord’s permission 😒
@tunisiancrochetchannel actually, when you put it like that, I understand her rule. I had to look at it from the landlord perspective. Nothing worse than a squatter or a rowdy people bringing drama to your home.
I manage apartments....the tenant has to give 30,60,90 days to vacate. The landlord or apartment manager is legally obliged to give a 3 day notice to quit/leave/move. But what ppl don't know is that, if you're being evicted you have the legal right to reside in that same place until a judge makes a judgement against you to move and the sheriff's office serves you. I believe it's a two year limit to stay... 🤔
There is no way I’d live somewhere that dictates who I have in a place I pay rent. That’s my home. There should not be any way a landlord can tell you who you have in your home, how long they are in ky home or when they are in my home. That’s complete bs.
So the plaintiff didn’t get his deposit back , they had no evidence he was moving someone in, they didn’t give proper notice, really bad landlords, I hope the other guy stitches them up. Nasty , this wasn’t a balanced hearing.
@@paultin3302At approx. 5:35 JM says that his security deposit was returned minus $350 that the landlord kept for changing the locks. Plus they mention it in the intro when the litigants are entering the courtroom.
Unbelievable ! The lady seems nosey and I bet her grown son didn't have to ask her for permission to have overnight guests over when he was there. Smh🙄
I agree about the guest-the landlord was weird and unfair. But as far as the case, all that was before the judge was the $350 for the lock. None of the rest came into play. I feel bad for the guy, but hopefully he’s in a better situation now!
@@juliecranford534 agreed but she has a property manager, which is her son which lives on the property $350 to go buy a lock and have him change his self. Absolutely not any other time. The judge is like you have a duty to mitigate your damages, getting a $350 locksmith, rather than having your property manager change the locks is absurd and it should not have been in his expense, that lady was moving weird I could understand if he was fighting her and trying not to move out but he obliged so he should’ve got his security deposit
He didn't abide by any of the rules within the lease. Retuen the key and gwt pwemission for guest. He signed the lease. His lost. Socks for him but this was a decision he made and now have deal with.
I'm not mad at her about the fear of 'Squatters Rights'. This country has stripped homeowners of their rights so they have to protect themselves and the property they worked hard for or inherited. The Law sure won't.
I get her reasoning for the rule but it’s still inconvenient and I think the roommate set him up to get his friend in because where was the proof he had a guest
This was the most confusing case.. So she didnt have to give him 30 days notice to vacate?? She assumed he was trying to move someone in? The judge didnt ask for ANY proof of this alleged overnight guest. This landlord is a paranoid control freak. She probably has cameras in the apartments. I think the roomate plotted to get him out.
I'm confused because plenty of times, JM didn't award money for the change of locks. She would always say, " It's a good idea to change the locks, but that shouldn't cost the other person"
The judge did horrible in this case. She just took the land lady's word for it. She didn't ask why the son or roommate wasn't in court, no affidavits from the son and roommate. The landlady proved nothing and still won because she played the sweet old role and the judge bought it. Why not always change the locks after each tenant? These cosplay landlords are something else.
I have signed leases where they stipulate after consecutive nights a guest must leave or be added to the lease and the rent goes up. Read what you sign and agree to
A 3-day notice and 5 days to move out and return the keys??? That’s not enough time to pack everything he’d just setup in his new apartment, arrange for someone to help him move, find a new place. I’m really surprised that JMM focused on the keys as the only issue, but didn’t explore other aspects of the case. Like, did she even check the lease to see if that short timeline was written into it? There was a lot of shadiness in this case. Either the landlady and son realized he’s gay and were discriminating against him. Or the roommate lied on him to get him out. Something. 🤔
WHAT? If the landlord has to give one month's notice, he was still the legal tenant and therefore had every right to hold on to the key, and since when does it cost $350 to change a lock? And everything the defendant said was hear-say she had no proof of anything she said about the emails, her son, nor about the other person he apparently wanted to move in, so SHE was in breach of the contract and should have had to return all his deposit, as it is her fault he had to move out so quickly and was not given the time to return the key. And why do landlords make such a big fuss about a key any way, it's not like the tenant can't make a copy. I would change the locks for every new tenant anyway...
He made it easy for the LL. She asked him to leave and he did, she didn't change the lock or throw his belongings out. Too bad he didn't return the keys.
Did anyone else notice how the defendant looked at the plantiff at one point during time he was talking to the judge? It was obvious she didn’t like him at all. If I were him I’d just be so glad to have gotten out of that situation. She had it in for him. She looks like she could be a real piece of work & nasty to go with it!
I was dying for her to explain that overnight guest rule. And tbh her explanation cleared it up. But it’s still unreasonable to expect there to be NO-ONE spending the night EVER. Like seriously… Anyway, it sounds like the roommate is the real problem here. He made her feel the situation was what it wasn’t (allegedly), hence her drastic measures.
Giving back the key is a moot point since the tenant can make a copy of the key. Seems like a landlord needs to rekey a house or an apt. every time someone leaves. $350 bucks is VERY high! I wonder why the roommate didn't talk to him before he tattled on him to that ridiculous landlord and her abusive manager son?
If I look at a lease and a landlord says I can't have somebody spend the night without getting in touch with management first. I'm not moving into that place whatsoever. I'm running!! Type of crap is that.
@tunisiancrochetchannel Pay closer attention. He was NOT renting a room. He rented the first floor of a house. The house was either split into two units or had always been a duplex. She did not live on the premises at all.
Smh I don't believe a word this woman says wish he would've sued for unlawful eviction so she would have to prove he had company and was going to move someone in JJ would've been all over this
The defendant sounds like the scammer. Plenty of times in other cases the Judge has ruled that a repair cost has been exorbitant. $350 for a lock change is ridiculous.
@baby2candy they have a ridiculous amount of rules on lease or off lease an are extra nosey, half of them don't know the law and constantly break it. And don't know how to let people be
From the text message her son sent, seems like they didn't like his lifestyle...whatever that may have been.... He should have pressed charges for those threats though....then filed suit suit for harassment...seems like it was multiple.
Dude should’ve just given back the key. I mean he really shouldn’t have moved out at all. He didn’t have sufficient notice. But he chose to move out, and keeping the key cost him.
So the YT algorithm has no problem with people posting their negative views based on the color of a person’s skin BUT if someone reacts to such comments and use the correct terminology for such words, the algorithm DELETES the comment simply asking if the first commenter was pleased with posting their words…..

He better be glad he got out with less headache than the 350 setting him back. That lady and her bully of a son are gonna be in for a rude awakening by the wrong tenant at the right time.

She sounds like a nutcase, and the son is a coward for not showing up to “support” her since he had so much to say over text. He dodged a bullet by not staying in her place.
I live in Miami super pricey, but 300 seems I don’t know for changing the key. I know some locksmith that will come and change your locks for about $50-$75.
I feel like the landlord/current tenant//son we’re in on a hustle to get him out. The way she bragged about the current tenant proved it.

She's a smart Woman
His guess could have easily become a squatter. She has obviously been burned before.
Just because they return the key, doesn’t mean they don’t have a spare.
That's why I always changed the locks when a roommate moved out.
Yes! I never understand the big deal about returning the key! Spares can be made for a couple of dollars.
You're right. However, smart landlords always have a spare lock that they use to replace the lock that the previous tenant had access to.
This is why it's required to change the locks in some states. Thank goodness.
