Description

This is a form from a Tenant to Landlord in response to Landlord's threat to evict Tenant from the premises. Tenant is contending that Landlord's threat to evict is retaliatory in nature and was done so in response to Tenant's actions as specified in the form. This form complies with state Housing Laws. [Your Name] [Your Address] [City, State, ZIP] [Date] [Landlord's Name] [Landlord's Address] [City, State, ZIP] Subject: Notice to Cease Retaliatory Threats to Evict or Retaliatory Eviction Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to bring to your attention certain concerns regarding recent actions and statements made by you which I believe constitute retaliatory threats to evict or retaliate through eviction. As a tenant residing in Hennepin, Minnesota, I am aware of my rights under the applicable laws and regulations. Firstly, I would like to state that I have always been a responsible and respectful tenant, complying with the terms of the lease agreement and following all the rules and guidelines set forth by you as the landlord. Recently, however, I have noticed a series of actions and ominous statements from you which I find alarming and detrimental to our landlord-tenant relationship. Minnesota's law explicitly prohibits landlords from engaging in retaliatory actions against tenants who exercise their rights or report violations, among other protected activities. Retaliatory conduct includes threats to evict, initiating eviction proceedings, or taking other punitive measures due to the tenant's lawful exercise of rights. Therefore, I kindly request that you immediately cease making any further retaliatory threats to evict or engage in retaliatory eviction against me. This request is based on my firm belief that any such actions would be in clear violation of Hennepin County and Minnesota laws. I trust that you are aware of the rights and responsibilities of both tenants and landlords as outlined in the Minnesota statutes and county-specific regulations. It is in both our best interests to maintain a harmonious and lawful tenancy. Should you choose to continue with retaliatory actions, I want to make you aware that I will not hesitate to exercise all legal options available to protect my rights as a tenant. In the event of any further retaliatory behavior, I may seek legal remedies or file a complaint with the necessary authorities. It is my sincere hope that we can resolve any issues or misunderstandings amicably and without further conflict. I kindly request a written response from you within [reasonable time frame, e.g., 10 business days] acknowledging this letter and assuring me that any retaliatory threats or actions will cease immediately. Thank you for your attention to this matter. I trust that we can work together to maintain a positive and mutually beneficial landlord-tenant relationship moving forward. Sincerely, [Your Name]
