[QUOTE="DoneDad, post: 722276, member: 17244"] California is very tenant friendly in its laws, and some cities especially so. If you live in a big city like LA or SF, there is no way they can evict you for your apartment being messy. First, they have to give you a 3 day notice to perform or quit. They have to detail exactly what you need to correct. Then they have to give you a 30 day notice to quit. Then if you are still there, they have to file an unlawful detainer, which can go to a jury trial and be very expensive for them if you want to pursue it. There are many free legal aid type tenant rights organizations in California that will give you free legal advice and representation. Do you live in a rent controlled area? If so, it’s very likely they’re trying to get rid of you to rent to someone else at a higher rent. Stay strong, inform yourself of your rights, and let them know you’re not going to be a pushover and that they will have a big legal battle on their hands if they do try to evict you.
