Subject: Urgent Concern of Illegal Entry by Landlord — Clovis, California Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you in good health. I am writing to bring to your immediate attention a disturbing incident that occurred on [date] at my rented property [address] in Clovis, California. It has come to my notice that you have engaged in illegal entry into the premises without prior notification or permission. As per the California Civil Code Section 1954, tenants have the right to privacy and to enjoy their rented premises without unwarranted disturbances or intrusion of any kind. The code clearly defines the landlord's responsibilities and states that they must adhere to proper procedures before entering the rental property, including providing reasonable advance notice, except in cases of emergencies. Regrettably, I have encountered numerous instances where you displayed a complete disregard for my privacy rights. These incidents include but are not limited to: 1. Unauthorized Entry: On [date(s)], I discovered evidence that you had entered my premises without my knowledge or consent. This violates my right to privacy and makes me feel insecure and uncomfortable in my own home. 2. Lack of Notice: As a responsible tenant, I have always expected and respected the notification process for any necessary visits or inspections. However, you have consistently failed to adhere to the California law, which requires providing at least 24 hours' written notice before entering the rented property. 3. Disrupted Peaceful Enjoyment: The frequent and unannounced entry into my rented premises causes undue stress, anxiety, and interferes with my peaceful enjoyment of the property as the law rightfully allows. I kindly request that you promptly rectify this ongoing issue by ensuring strict compliance with the following: 1. Respect My Privacy Rights: Understand and acknowledge that my privacy rights hold great importance and must be respected at all times. Unannounced entry into my premises is unacceptable, and I expect immediate cessation of these unauthorized visits. 2. Provide Advance Written Notice: Adhere to the legal requirements of the California Civil Code Section 1954, which necessitates providing at least 24 hours' written notice for any planned entry, except in case of emergencies. 3. Ensure Exceptional Landlord-Tenant Communication: Establish a consistent communication channel that enables effective dialogue between us. This will facilitate coordination regarding any lawful entry requirements, such as maintenance repairs, inspections, or other necessary matters. Failure to address this matter promptly will leave me with no choice but to seek legal advice and pursue my rights under the California law, which may include filing complaints with appropriate authorities and seeking financial remedies for the distress caused. I trust that we can resolve this issue amicably and promptly, allowing us to maintain a respectful and harmonious landlord-tenant relationship. I kindly request that you respond to this letter within [reasonable timeframe] to acknowledge the seriousness of this matter and your commitment to rectify the situation. Furthermore, I look forward to a prompt and amicable resolution.
