Hi all:
I currently rent an illegal basement apartment in The Bronx. Been here 4 years. A new tenant moved above me and said to the landlord that she hates the smell of weed. I myself am 420 friendly and smoke daily. I've never gotten a complaint about it in the past, but yesterday morning my landlord knocked and told me I was evicted due to weed smoke and have to vacate the property in 7 days.
I had no idea this was an illegal dwelling until one year into being here(Got the apartment through a realty firm) I've always paid in cash also. There is no lease. This is a month to month.
What sort of rights do I have here incase I come home one day and the locks are changed or my stuff is outside?
