[Your Name] [Your Address] [City, State, ZIP] [Email Address] [Phone Number] [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 hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to address a matter of concern regarding the recent occurrences involving retaliatory threats to evict or engage in retaliatory eviction. It is my understanding that such actions contravene my rights as a tenant under the laws and regulations governing residential tenancy in Little Rock, Arkansas. As a tenant residing at [Your Address], I have observed a series of troubling incidents that have led me to believe that you may be retaliating against me for exercising my legally protected rights. State law and the Little Rock Residential Landlord-Tenant Act both protect tenants from retaliation and acknowledge the fundamental right every tenant has to live in a safe, habitable environment without fear of retaliation for legitimate actions within their rights. I feel it is imperative to remind you of my rights as a tenant, as outlined in these laws and regulations. When I moved into the premises, a landlord-tenant relationship was established, and with it came certain rights and responsibilities for each party involved. These rights protect me from any retaliatory action you may take as a landlord in response to actions I have taken in accordance with my obligations as a tenant. Given the aforementioned circumstances, I hereby request that you immediately cease any retaliatory threats to evict me or engage in retaliatory eviction. Retaliation in any form is fundamentally unfair and goes against the principles of landlord-tenant relationships designed to protect the rights and interests of both parties. Additionally, I expect that any future actions or interactions between us, involving my tenancy or any concerns I raise in good faith, will be conducted in a fair, respectful, and legally-compliant manner, in strict adherence to the Little Rock Residential Landlord-Tenant Act. Failure to comply with this notice and persisting with any form of retaliatory action may compel me to seek legal remedies available to me under Arkansas state law. These may include filing a complaint with the Arkansas Real Estate Commission, contacting legal counsel to explore potential legal action, and pursuing all available remedies provided by the Little Rock Residential Landlord-Tenant Act. Please consider this letter as my sincere attempt to resolve this matter amicably, and I hope that we can rectify this situation promptly. I believe it is in both our interests to maintain a positive and mutually respectful landlord-tenant relationship, promoting a peaceful and harmonious living environment. Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. I kindly request a written response within [reasonable time frame, e.g., 10 business days] confirming your commitment to cease any retaliatory threats to evict or engage in retaliatory eviction. Your cooperation in this matter is greatly appreciated.
