Withhold Rent Case Study

271 Words2 Pages

If I withhold rent in response to Landlord Joe not fixing the leak then his remedies under URLTA and Non-URLTA will be different.

However, in this cause it is just a leaky faucet so I would not be allowed to withhold the entire months’ rent.

Also you cannot just withhold rent you have to go through the court. That way the rent is put into a safe account.

Roger should have got the roof checked and looked at the ceiling in the apartment to see if anything seems like it has a leak, and if he saw something, he should have told the landlord and the landlord should have fixed the issue. Also, Roger should have made Larry wrote a covenant because he would have had some documentation that Larry stated he was going to repair the leak. For instance, when I and my finance moved to Valdosta in an apartment the manager of the apartments stated they checked all apartments.
