Do my landlord have a right to raise my rent to $50.00 a year if my apartment is in the basement illegally?

So you contact the landlord and explain your "mistake" and inform the landlord the status of the money and when it will be available to pay the rent and "hope" he landlord is understanding, which they normally are unless this is a regular thing you do, in which case it is a breach of tenancy and the landlord will get you evicted.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
