Legal Question in Civil Rights Law in California

Eviction

The Landlord Served me with a 60-dau notice to quit & served me with a 60-day notice to increase rent on 2/2/07 when the notice is dated 11/27/06 after I exercised my right to ''repair & deduct'' (CALIF CIVIL CODE 1941 & 1942). I sdvised the landlord of repairs over 6 months ago which include and not limited to the kitchen faucet cold water not running, the garbage disposal leaking profusley and had to be wrapped in duct tape. I had to use a bucket to catch the water. Electrical outlets shorting out and almost caused a fire in my bedroom. I am not sure which way to go with this.
