I want to keep my window open because it’s my preference. My landlord wants to keep it closed because they remotely controls the house’s A/C. They’ll walk right up to my room and slam it shut whenever they visits on random days to harass us about the kitchen looking like people live here.


Why haven’t you put a piece of wood in the window track yet? If you physically block the window, he can’t do it from the outside
Because that would be an escalation they would without a doubt retaliate against, and it would be immediate rather than on my terms. I really do mean my landlord is a psycho. We have security cameras in the kitchen and written instructions on pieces of paper taped everywhere. When I first moved in they banged on my bedroom door to rant at me about other people having kitchen appliances they didn’t approve and leaving a pan out. “You know what happens when I find something like this left out? It goes in the trash!”
You should definitely get a lawyer well versed in tenant rights. California has some of the most protective tenants rights in the US. From what you are describing I would not be surprised if a judge issues a temporary restraining order against the landlord to stay away from the property until things have been resolved.
I’m pretty sure a landlord can not do that legally most places
Just went out after they wrapped up their visit and the fucking psycho threw out all the mail that was sitting in the common area. Including a letter to someone here from the DMV.
If you’re in the us that could be mail tampering or the like. You’re absolutely not supposed to mess with other people’s mail. That’s a federal no no
