Tenant protections in Montana include the right to timely repairs and habitable living conditions. Retaliatory actions by landlords for tenant complaints are prohibited. Landlords must comply with all health and safety codes as mandated by Montana landlord-tenant laws.
Montana law ( 70-24-406, MCA) gives you remedies if the repairs affect health and safety. If the repairs dont affect health and safety, like a closet door that wont close properly, you can still ask the landlord to repair them. But, you wont have any remedy in court if the landlord refuses to repair them.
