Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

I'm also given to understand that, since it is a one unit situation (over a liquor store), I am sol in terms of rights.

yes, a lot of the landlord/tenant laws won't apply to you because your landlord isn't a "landlord" in the legal sense, becuase he doesn't have enough units.

Are you on a month to month lease?

As I think about it, landlords can only raise the rent by a certain percentage per year. I want to say 3% is the maximum. But, again, not sure if that applies here.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

In CA, it wouldn't.

This is why I don't like giving gift cards.

I don't like giving gift cards because you trade convenient money that you can spend anywhere at any time for inconvenient money that in some cases expires.

Weird. Totally opposite charts. (Literally) Hmph. Must be radioactive spiders.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Kat, what sizes are the kids in, now? And can K come with me to see Gracie this weekend?

Beej, a quick gander at the law seems to suggest that if the landlord owns less than 4 units, the rent ceiling law doesn't apply.

Since I write the leases (see the above mentioned moronness), I suppose i could make it anything I want.

I have read the 3% thing too, which is why the 10% seemed unreasonable.

Today was the very first time I've ever gotten anything in writing from him. When he brought this up, in October, I put my foot down. No more scribbled notes shoved through the door. Honestly, I wonder if he's running drugs out of the store given how adverse he is to doing business in any sane way.

They are both sort of in 3-6months now. More or less.

And yes. K can come with you to see Grace. I'll email you both.
