Subject: Response to Notice to Terminate for Noncompliance — Noncompliant condition caused by Landlord's own deliberate/negligent act Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing in response to the Notice to Terminate for Noncompliance that I recently received, regarding the noncompliant condition in my rented property located at [address]. First and foremost, I would like to emphasize that the noncompliant condition mentioned in your notice is directly caused by your deliberate/negligent act as my landlord. This puts a substantial burden on me as a tenant, affecting my living conditions, safety, and overall satisfaction with the property. I deeply value our landlord-tenant relationship and wish that we can address this matter amicably. It is important to highlight the specific noncompliant condition that I believe was caused by your deliberate/negligent act. [Describe the noncompliant condition in detail, supporting your statement with evidence/documents if available]. This condition significantly hampers my ability to enjoy the premises as outlined in our rental agreement. According to the Louisiana Landlord and Tenant Act, Louisiana Revised Statutes 9:3251 et seq., landlords are legally obligated to provide habitable living conditions and maintain the property in compliance with local housing codes. When a noncompliant condition is caused by the landlord's own deliberate or negligent act, it becomes their responsibility to rectify the situation promptly. I kindly request that you take immediate action to remedy the noncompliant condition and restore the property to a habitable state. I believe it is fair to request that you address the following measures to resolve the issue: 1. [Specify the necessary repairs, replacements, or maintenance required]. 2. [Specify any additional actions that may be appropriate to rectify the situation]. 3. [Specify a reasonable timeframe for completing the repairs]. Furthermore, I would like to propose that we meet in person or communicate through a phone call to discuss how we can move forward and address this situation effectively. Open and transparent communication will help us reach a mutually satisfactory resolution. Please be informed that I am within my rights as a tenant to seek legal remedies if the noncompliant condition remains unresolved despite my efforts to communicate the concerns to you. However, I sincerely hope that it does not come to that and that we can work together to resolve this matter promptly. I kindly request your written acknowledgement of this letter and a detailed plan outlining the steps you will take to rectify the noncompliant condition. I greatly appreciate your attention to this matter and your timely response. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation. Sincerely, [Your Name] [Tenant's Address] [Tenant's Contact Information]
