Subject: Unauthorized Entry Notice — Urgent Action Required Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to bring to your attention a matter of great concern that I recently discovered relating to multiple unauthorized entries into my rental property located at [Property Address] in Garden Grove, California. First and foremost, I want to highlight the seriousness of the issue at hand. As a tenant, I have a reasonable expectation of privacy and the right to enjoy my rented premises undisturbed, as outlined in the California Civil Code Section 1954. My fundamental right to privacy has been violated by repeated and illegal entries made by you or your agents without proper notice or my prior consent. Throughout the past [state time duration], I have noticed several occasions where I have returned home to find evidence indicating that my privacy has been infringed upon. These instances not only create an uncomfortable living situation but also potentially compromise my personal safety and security. I am fully aware of California's laws regarding landlord entry and understand that you are obligated to provide written notice at least 24 hours before entering the premises, except in the case of an emergency. Unfortunately, it has become apparent that these legal requirements have been disregarded, leaving me feeling vulnerable and disturbed. To address this matter and resolve it amicably, I kindly request the following actions to be taken by yourself or your authorized representatives: 1. Immediate Cease and Desist: I strongly request that you cease and desist any unauthorized entry into my rental property and respect my privacy rights as a tenant moving forward. 2. Investigation and Explanation: I kindly ask you to provide a detailed explanation of the reasons behind the unauthorized entries that have occurred without prior notification. Please clarify the exact dates and times of entry, along with the purpose for each entry made. 3. Prevention Measures: Take appropriate measures to ensure that no further unauthorized entries occur in the future, including informing all parties involved, such as property management staff, maintenance personnel, or other authorized individuals, about the applicable laws regarding tenant privacy rights. 4. Written Assurance: I kindly request a written assurance from you, within [state a reasonable timeframe], confirming your commitment to respecting my privacy rights and ensuring no further unauthorized entries will take place. 5. Compensation for Disruption: Due to the infringement on my privacy rights and the subsequent disruption and distress caused, I kindly request compensation for any damages, losses, and inconveniences sustained as a result of the unauthorized entries. Please be aware that unauthorized entry into a tenant's rental property is a serious offense under California law, and I am prepared to take further legal action if necessary to protect my rights. However, I genuinely hope that we can resolve this matter swiftly and amicably, avoiding any further escalation. I kindly request that you acknowledge receipt of this letter within [state a reasonable timeframe] and commence the necessary actions to rectify the situation promptly. Should you fail to address this matter appropriately, I will have no choice but to explore other available legal remedies at my disposal. Thank you for your immediate attention to this matter, and I trust that we can find a satisfactory resolution as responsible parties involved.
