Hey guys I’m not sure how to actually update correctly so check my profile for the first post.

My landlord posted a notice on my door April 1st saying “you need to be out by may 15th or you will be evicted because I asked for your pay stubs and you did not provide them. My lease started last August and a veteran program pays my rent and I provide paystubs to them monthly already. Not to mention NO WHERE in my lease does it state that I have to provide pay stubs on demand or be evicted. Rent has never been late, I’ve never broken any rules written or otherwise. I’m clean and quiet and boring. Anywho my landlord just texted me that if I’m not out of the apartment by the 30th-which is two days from now he will change the locks and have my car towed . I know it’s an illegal eviction if he actually does that for one. For two the note he posted on my door said I had until may 15th 3. My lease isn’t up until August 1st. The problem is that the town I live in is sooooo fucking corrupt that I don’t trust that the police would tell him he can’t change the locks, I don’t trust that a judge wouldn’t let him get away with this entire thing because otherwise he wouldn’t be so confident and putting these things in writing right? Just looking for advice because I’m shaken. The only reason I’m even abiding by the may 15th deadline is because I cannot handle him being my landlord. He bought the building two months after I moved in so I didn’t have a choice obviously. My response to him was “why did you write may 15th on the note you posted if that’s not what you meant? April 30th doesn’t work for me, may 3rd is more convenient. If you want me to pay three days rent, so be it.

Thanks
