A constable landed on my door and told me I have 48 hours to vacant my rented condo (which is only 2 units condo house) which I have been resided for more than 10 years. I received a message from the condo property manager an eviction judgment against me to evict. I have not been given any due process nor summon/ complaint for hearing at the court by the bank attorney. I later challenged the attorney and found out that he defaulted the court with false information provided (said he has certificate of service with mail and first class mail served). I have never received any notices or by first class mail except the latest eviction judgement about 20 days later from the date when judgement was made. The reason for the eviction in the summon was "unpaid-rent" and seek determination on fair market rent. I paid my rent on time with proof and they have accepted it for the last 4 months. The bank has tried to force me out of the unit as soon as they foreclosed the property. However, there were serious health violation and repair not made for 6 months from the date I reported the condition. I have 3 requested on follow up with the repair after each 30 days past. The attorney was caught for not doing the legal process (notice to quit rent, hearing on court date, etc) before the summon and judgement were served so he stopped the eviction even thought he has the court order to evict in hand. The attorney has tried to threaten the property manager to court and now threaten my tenancy a "bona fide". I called the Health Board Department for an inspection and the report said the unit is inhabitable under the sanitary state law and required an immediate action to repair within 30 days. The bank put the unit up for a significant discount auction sale as soon as they got a judgement to evict (unlawful eviction). Now, the attorney is very angry, he cannot proceed with eviction and said he has judgement from the court to bring the rent to 2 times the market rent (including those past 4 months) in 2 days right after the violation issued. The attorney sent me email and threaten me to call him to discuss the tenancy.
My questions are:
1). can the bank and the attorney skip the legal process and default to the court that all notices were served including the first hearing and the judge awarded them?
2). Can the attorney has the authority to get a judgement from court to increase the rent when there is a violation relating to health issue?
3). Can the bank (attorney) file for another eviction base on bona fide after they has been awarded for the first one (unlawfully)?
4). If I have to go to the court for a re-open the case, can I hire an attorney to represent me?
5). If I can proof what the bank attorney did was unlawful and retaliation, I think I can sue them for 3 times damages, it is true?
6). Do I have to call the bank attorney to discuss the tenancy, because he will threaten me to quit?
Thank you, any advice will be appreciated.
