What legal recourse do tenants in Massachusetts have if a landlord throws out tenants' personal belongings in storage units prior to the lease being up and when the tenants are not being evicted?
Depending on the value of the property you can bring an action in small claims court. You must have a copy of your lease, proof that you had exclusive rights to use the storage unit and receipts for the property that was thrown out to prove the dollar amount of the damages. You should also try to obtain proof of when the property was thrown out.
If you have any photos of what was stored it would be helpful.
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.
