Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in California

Hopeless & Soon To Be Homeless...Again

My bf and I had been living life in our apt. for just about 2.5 years, until a new neighbor and her son moved into the complex. She started rumors about us and teamed up with 2 other single moms in the complex who began to watch our every move, and complain daily to the owner, and even called the police because we yelled back at their kids, who constantly scream bloody murder and yell at the top of their lungs in front of our living room windows all day everyday, for them to stop screaming. One of the single moms felt bad for calling the police and became friends with my bf and told us about how the new neighbor was ''going to get us evicted'' and ''not to worry because we would be gone very soon''.

We have done nothing to her but for some reason she has decided that we deserve to lose our home.

Sept. 01 moved into apts

2.5 yrs with no problems

New neighbor and son moved in

Approx. 1 yr later we are physically removed from our home by Sheriff's with guns ready, literally.

To date because my credit is beyond bad and with this eviction, I don't know what to do. Who would rent to me? I was actually at a point where I could start to repair my credit until I was kicked out of my home.

Any advice is greatly appreciated.
