My tenant moved into my flat in June 2017. He gave me post-dated checks, but they started bouncing from the first month itself. He paid for June in cash, but then promised to pay for two more months and gave another check, which also bounced. I don’t want him living in my flat anymore. What legal steps can I take?

You can legally evict your tenant as he has breached the rental agreement by failing to make timely payments. You need to issue a legal notice to vacate within a reasonable timeframe, and if he doesn’t comply, you can file an eviction suit in the appropriate court.

My tenant, a partnership of 3 friends, rented my commercial property in May 2015. One partner didn’t contribute any money. After 6 months, one partner told me the non-investor couldn’t handle losses and wasn’t participating. Another partner wanted to transfer his share to his mother. I signed a new partnership agreement with the remaining two (one original partner and the mother). The non-investor didn’t respond to calls or sign the new agreement. Now, after 18 months, he’s sent a notice claiming I shouldn’t have signed the new agreement without his resignation. What should I do?

My landlord has been physically and verbally abusing me for a while now. Recently, he hit me so hard I lost hearing in my left ear. I filed a police complaint (FIR) but they haven’t taken any action. They only gave me 30 minutes to collect my belongings, leaving many things behind. The landlord then broke the lock and took everything. He also gave me a cheque for my security deposit which bounced. Now he’s making threats. What should I do?
