If you don't pay your rent, you are subject to eviction ( Unlawful Detainer). He would have to go to Court to enforce that.

If you have defenses, you could request a trial, AFTER you pay rent into Court.

If you are being harassed or unlawfully threatened by your LL, I would write a letter setting out your rights and claims.

I have over 35 years experience in LL/Tenant law, as an Attorney and also as a Landlord.

Call or email for further assistance. I am in Eden Prairie but practice statewide in MN.
