If the landlord fails to make a repair in 14 days, the tenant may make the repair themselves or hire a handyman to make the repair, submit an invoice of the repair charges to the landlord and deduct the costs from their next rent payment.
Your landlord cant sue you. If 30 days comes and goes without a response, the landlord forfeits their right to sue you for any damage to the property (if there is any). Carroll says this is one of the more docHub penalties a landlord could face if they dont get back to you quickly.
A landlord who wants to evict a tenant, who has not moved in response to the landlords eviction notice, must file a lawsuit at the Magisterial District Judge called a Landlord/Tenant Complaint.
