Description

This is a form from a Tenant to Landlord in response to Landlord's threat to evict Tenant from the premises. Tenant is contending that Landlord's threat to evict is retaliatory in nature and was done so in response to Tenant's actions as specified in the form. This form complies with state Housing Laws. [Your Name] [Your Address] [City, State, ZIP] [Date] [Landlord's Name] [Landlord's Address] [City, State, ZIP] Subject: Notice to Cease Retaliatory Threats to Evict or Retaliatory Eviction Dear [Landlord's Name], I am writing this letter to bring your attention to the concerning issue of potential retaliatory threats to evict or retaliate against me, [your name], [tenant of the property address], in accordance with my rights as a tenant in Elizabeth, New Jersey. I demand an immediate end to any such actions that could be perceived as retaliatory. As you may be aware, under New Jersey law, a tenant is protected against retaliatory actions by their landlord. Retaliation can take various forms, such as threats to evict, intimidation, harassment, or any actions that create an inhospitable living environment in response to the tenant exercising their legal rights. It has come to my attention that my recent complaints filed with you, whether in writing or verbal, regarding necessary repairs and maintenance issues have led to adverse behavior on your part. I have observed unmistakable signs suggesting that you are contemplating retaliatory actions, such as mentioning the possibility of eviction, uttering intimidating statements, or creating a hostile atmosphere. I would like to remind you that retaliatory actions against tenants are strictly prohibited under New Jersey law, specifically the "Anti-Eviction Act," which safeguards tenants from any form of retaliation following the lawful exercise of their rights. Violations of this law may result in severe legal consequences for landlords. In light of this, I kindly request that you immediately cease any retaliatory behavior or threats of eviction against me. I expect a prompt response from you confirming your commitment to comply with the law and stating that no further retaliatory actions or threats will take place. I trust that you will act responsibly and uphold your legal obligations as a landlord. If, however, the retaliatory behavior continues, I will have no choice but to report these actions to the appropriate authorities and take legal action to protect my rights as a tenant. I would prefer to resolve this matter amicably and maintain a respectful landlord-tenant relationship. Please acknowledge receipt of this letter within [number of days, 5-7 recommended] and provide a written response addressing the concerns raised. Failure to do so will only amplify my concerns and may leave me with no option but to take the appropriate measures to safeguard my rights. Thank you for your attention to this matter. I anticipate your prompt response and a resolution to this issue. Sincerely, [Your Name]
