Landlords in Hawaii are prohibited from retaliating against tenants for exercising their legal rights. This includes actions like raising rent, decreasing services, or starting eviction proceedings within 12 months after a tenant files a complaint or request regarding habitability issues or discriminatory treatment.
Hawaii law defines legal cause as failure to pay rent, violation of the lease or rental agreement, or serious damage to the rental unit or another person. To evict the tenant for one of these reasons, the landlord needs to first terminate the tenancy.
Your letter should identify each item you dispute, state the facts, explain why you dispute the information, and ask that the business that supplied the information take action to have it removed or corrected. You may want to enclose a copy of your report with the item(s) in question circled.
