aw geez, Legz, that's awful!

sounds like one of the worst weeks in history.

first, can you stop payment on the rent check?

sounds like the landlord took your money under false pretenses, I mean, it's not like he didn't KNOW the house was being sold, and escrow was closing immediately!

and aren't there LAWS in your area regarding the length of time a landlord is required to give notice for termination of a lease? and aren't there penalties involved?

I sure hope the lawyer is able to help you out, because whether it's legal or not, it's certainly immoral, what he did.

happy birthday, and I hope tomorrow goes better, and your daughter's ENT appointment goes well, and no more tubes are needed.
