Legal action against tenant
My girlfriend and I who are engaged to be married soon had a rental agreement with a tenant for an apartment. The same day my girlfriend was suppose to move in the tenant said he changed his mind because he didn’t like the looks of my girlfriends Van. The Van was an older model and only had a bumper off on the back. The tenant told us there was no way that the Van could sit in front of his apartments. Even though my girfriend and I had not sign a contract for rental there was a verbal agreement made as well as the tenant telling us to go ahead and have all the utilities changed over to our name and there was a handshake. It cause embarrassment for us because of several reasons including having to reverse utilities back over. I was very embarrassed of reasons to the utility companies why I had to get mt deposits back.Are there any legal action I can take such as discrimmination???

  1. Re: Legal action against tenant
    Who is the landlord and who is the tenant? If the other person is the tenant, why is he calling it “his apartments?” Nevertheless, which ever one of you is the actual landlord and tenant, discrimination does not include “race, age, gender, and …. vans.” Moreover, I am not sure it is reasonable to be “embarassed” for contacting utilities. They don’t know you, and have already forgotten you. The real issue is whether you have a contract claim, but you’d likely need a few more facts and damages (money, not embarassment). You can re-post in that category if you want.
