Hello,

I got a letter from my apartment regarding unlawful detainer.

The apartment refused to take our rent for almost 4 months because it was paid in a personal check and not cashier’s check.

I have 5 days to respond, what should I do please?

Also, please reach out to local counsel in your jurisdiction. Additionally, there are resources at pro Bono clinics that can help with this in most cities.

If it was stipulated in the contract, maybe try talking to the landlord and paying them in a cashier's check. It is always better to speak to them in a friendly manner.

Yes I did

I would try to get them that money in a cashier's check as soon as possible. It seems that they're standing on there rules.

So I guess what is the issue then. I am so confused.

What does it say in the leasing contract? You need to make sure to read the lease. Could you just pay them in a cashier's check?

I paid in cashier’s check what was owed. They didn’t accept it and still took us to eviction

Do you still have a copy of your contract? If yes, keep it and show it to your lawyer if you already have one.

Check the lease agreement. There should be a solution there. If not, go and check with a lawyer. good luck!

So have you just not been paying your rent? I am so confused.

Is it ok to send you a private message?

This bowl was originally created for black attorneys in big law, but since it’s the only bowl for black attorneys, many black attorneys in other sectors have joined. Some people are apprehensive about starting another bowl for all black attorneys because it will take away from this bowl. Assuming that the conversations & topics will stay the same, What are you thoughts on keeping this bowl solely for black in big law verses Opening this bowl to any black lawyer?
