Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in California

Desperate Mother

I am on the Section 8 program in California, I moved into my house before the contract was finished with section 8, which leaves me to pay the owner back rent, i have lost my job and am now on welfare, i have not had any success with getting any child support help for my 2 kids, I have told the landlord that i just do not have extra money to start making payments on the back rent not until i can find a job again but everyday she is calling me and asking me when am i going to start paying her the back rent, I am still unemployeed and going to school to try and help me get a job i have applied everywhere fast-food places anything to get more money to help me pay her and to help take care of my childeren and me. She does not care i feel harassed by her everyday. I do pay the current rent it is just that i have no money to start making payments on anything else I pay all the bills and everything, and there is just never any extra money. What can I do? I just don't know what to tell her amymore?

Re: Desperate Mother

If you are having a hard time with the bills, you should contact the local child support agency to help you file for child support from the other parent. That should provide you some significant relief.

Please contact a qualified attorney before you take any action.

Good luck,
