Retaliatory evictions occur when a landlord attempts to evict
a tenant in response to some action taken by the tenant.
Retaliatory evictions can be the landlord's response to complaints
by the tenant to the landlord or a housing authority or official,
the tenant's call for a city inspector, or tenant organizing.
If you are being evicted from your apartment in
retaliation for making a complaint, you have rights and your landlord
must follow proper legal procedures for evicting you from your
apartment.
