QUESTION

What are my rights?

Asked on Dec 14th, 2017 on Housing Law - Connecticut
More details to this question:
I owed my landlord 2 months of rent so he wanted me out of the aparment. He told me he was going to take me to court and i let him know that i needed 2 weeks to get my stuff out. He never took me to court or gave me a written notice to vacate. When i go home after being away for a weekend i come to see my apartment completely empty. He took it upon himself to throw away everything that belonged to me and my children. What rights do i have here considering that i did owe him rent?

First, if you were still in possession of the unit and he entered without your authority, I would have called the police. He may have committed criminal trespass, burglary, ect.  You have many rights you are probably unaware of. You need to sit down with an experienced housing attorney or at least speak with one over the phone. We handle matters like this routinely and would be happy to speak with you.  You can email me contact information at MaxLRosenberg@RmHmLaw.com  Were you able to recover any of your possessions?
