- Our landlord ignored dangerous mold for 7+ months, making us severely ill with pneumonia- We legally withheld rent under California law due to uninhabitable conditions- Landlord retaliated by illegally locking us out (it's called "self-help eviction")- Police, Legal Aid, District Attorney, Victim Services - 8 agencies failed us- 249 days later, we're still locked out with everything we own inside
- Including my grandmother's ashes
- Sheriff looks at our lease and rental receipts- Sees no court-filed eviction = illegal lockout- Tells landlord: "You broke the law, let them back in"- Landlord pays damages (~$20,000-30,000)- Case closed in 2 weeks
