Re: Land lords family living in my house
You should go directly to Court and not pass go. landlord is clearly violating your right to quiet enjoyment if you are paying rent to house his/her relatives in a fully separate unit.
"Fully separate unit." Key words, implying that you are supposed to control the keys. If all you are paying for is a single room, you instead may be in an illegal rooming house. or for that matter a legal rooming house.
