OMG I'm going to be thrown into the street!
I've not said much on DU lately because I've been so busy trying to save my own life. The district court ran roughshod all over my rights and PA law and went ahead with a hearing a mere few days after I first found out my slumlord wanted to evict me. The slumlord never served a Notice to Quit on me and the court knew that and scheduled a hearing anyway. I even said this to the judge at the hearing I had no other choice but to go to and he just ignored it. He let her blab on and on slandering both me and innocent people like the plumber though he did say he didn't believe her. At least I was able to get him to see the photos of the worst of the damage but other than that he wouldn't even let me speak in my own defense even when I had evidence to refute her epic lies.
The judge got a township inspector in to inspect the property which I'd been trying to do for a week but I wasn't allowed to speak to him or point out anything he missed! During the next hearing after the inspection the judge talked about the inspector's report which I didn't get a copy of and wasn't even allowed to see! I don't even know what was being talked about concerning the report during the hearing between the slumlord and the judge. Every time it was my turn to speak he just interrupted me as soon as I opened my mouth not letting me refute a thing she said like saying I never paid a security deposit when I had proof with me with her signature of the original document she signed accounting for all the money I paid her when I signed the lease which included first and last month's rent and security deposit.
A few days later I get the judgment in the mail which I couldn't even understand. After talking to the idiot clerks in his office it looks like I can stay here but I have only 10 days from the date of the judgment to pay her around $2000 or I can appeal to the county court. By the time I got the judgment in the mail and figured out what it means I have a mere FOUR DAYS to either appeal or get this money into her hand or the constable comes to throw me out on the street and everything I own gets put on the curb and/or the slumlord gets to keep it!!!
Right after the hearing she started harassing me. I knew she was nuts but had no idea she was this psycho. I had to warn the plumber and all his workers and all the agents in the code enforcement office. The plumber already knew she was batty and called me to tell me what she was trying to do and beware. Since then it's been harassing phone calls. Yesterday I went to the police station to ask an officer for advice... really nice and helpful guy. A few hours after that came another of her phone calls that I actually answered this time to tell her that I spoke to the police and that she has to stop harassing me. True to form she went completely off her nut. Scared the hell out of me, so I called the police again and an officer came over. Different one this time, and this one I've met before from walking Yoshi around the police station since it's also a big park and his favorite place to go. Very nice guy, got me calmed down a little, gave me some more advice and said they'd keep an eye on my street and a look out for her and to report to them anything else that she does. He thought she'd done this before since what she was doing kept herself just a hair off the line from at what point they could do something and he warned me that she's likely to escalate and that he thinks Yoshi will keep her out of barging into the house.
Legal aid has been no help. They told me I should file an appeal which is what I'd prefer as it would be cheaper except that it's not cheaper. It's a lot more expensive than paying her this blood money to stay here while I try to find a job so I CAN get out. I'd probably also need an attorney since I don't know what I'm doing and don't even have the time to do it. Since I found out about the hearing I've had no time to gather all the evidence I needed (though I did get most of it) and have barely had any time to sleep much less even think about getting a job.
I desperately need help. At this point I've been beaten down so badly by both the slumlord and the court I can't even think straight anymore. I've been so mentally and emotionally battered that right now I'm really feeling like if the most fabulous job in the world dropped into my lap I wouldn't be able to handle doing it.
I don't have anywhere to go or even anywhere to store my stuff. I'm beside myself with terror about what's going to happen not just to me but to Yoshi who for so long has been the only thing forcing me out of bed every day and to keep plugging away. I can't lose him. I won't. But I won't let either of us live on the street either. Yet I have nowhere to go, not even a piece of floor to borrow from anyone, and I'm struggling as it is just to try to keep the electricity, water, phone and internet on as well as eat and have my meds, too.
OMG, I'm so scared and I just don't know what to do.
I have this feeling the DUmmie did not pay the rent or trashed the place.

83. None of this is how evictions work.
I've managed rentals and I've evicted people. There are regional variations and some judges are assholes, but what you're describing isn't how things work anywhere. You're not going to go from a written notice to pay rent or quit to unlawful detainer court to a lockout in six weeks. The system isn't that fast at the best of times in the least complicated cases. UD courts in cities have months long backlogs in the current economy. Likewise no judge is going to refuse to look at your cancelled checks. That's just too silly to even ask people to believe.
I'd advise posters to be skeptical.
DUmpangelnumbers doesn't do skepticism.

110. Bad things do happen
But there are too many things that make no sense. Evictions do not work this way or the way described in the first urgent plea for money. They just don't.
And after she pays this month, what next?

112. For that matter, the story about the inspection makes no sense.
If the inspection found that the place is uninhabitable (and any number of the issues she described would result in that) then the landlord would either have a very short time period to remedy the situation or would not be able to legally rent the unit until it was corrected, depending on local rules and the exact nature of the violation. Collecting rent while the unit is not inhabitable isn't generally allowed, but the tenant would generally have to put the money toward correcting the unit themselves or show that they were setting the money aside. You can't use the existing issues with the unit as an excuse not to pay.
I'm still not sure how issues with the property would result in losing her job, either. The landlord can let workers in, she didn't have to sit around and miss work to open the door for the plumber or something.
In short, nothing about the story makes any sense to me, and I've dealt with some obscure corners of tenancy law and even trained property managers in the weirder possibilities.
-
As someone who has rented from scumbag landlords and lived with scumbag renters, the landlord is required to give a 30-day notice of eviction. A talented layabout or schemer can prolong said eviction up to 90 days, but it does require a few visits to the courthouse.

Would you want an animal owned by a DUmmy?
My dog sleeps about 20 hours a day. He has his food prepared for him. He can eat whenever he wants, 24/7/365. His meals are provided at no cost to him. He visits the Dr. once a year for his checkup, and again during the year if any medical needs arise.
For this He pays nothing, and nothing is required of him. He lives in a nice neighborhood in a house that is much larger than he needs, but he is not required to do any upkeep.
If He makes a mess, someone else cleans it up. He has his choice of luxurious places to sleep. He receives these accommodations absolutely free.
He is living like a king, and has absolutely no expenses whatsoever. All of his costs are picked up by others who go out and earn a living every day.

It is not difficult to find and clear that for a physical removal to be imminent then several weeks of litigation would have had to elapsed.
It is also clear that for her story to be true then she would have had to been the victim of a perfect storm of incompetence and corruption that extends through the entire Philadelphia legal and social services systems. :whatever:

170. Oh **** - gofundme takes 5 to 7 business days to pay out the money you raise
I've only got a few days left to appeal or pay the judgment. Actually, if I pay the judgment it has to be in the slumlord's hand by the day it's due.
Oh holy shit, I need to talk to an attorney. I still don't know exactly on what day that 10 day count down started. The judge made the judgment on the 24th, it was mailed on the 25th and I got it in the mail on Saturday, the 28th. Then it was Monday that I found out what the damn judgment even meant. That asshole clerk at the district court told me the 10 days started from the date of the judgment, but how was I to know anything about it until I got it in the mail??? I still don't know if the 10 days started on the 24th when he made it or the 25th when it got mailed.
****, ****, ****! Now what the hell do I do???
Ok, had a few deep breaths, done with the freaking out now. I have to find out for sure what's going on here. I can't trust what that asshole clerk told me since she didn't have a blithering clue about anything the last time I talked to her. She's rude as hell as well just as a matter of course. She's the nincompoop who actually blithely told me that the judge is biased in favor of landlords! And she said it proudly!
So, I need to talk to one of the real attorneys I asked advice from before and see if they can just explain for certain how much time I have to do what. And like an idiot never bookmarked any of them, so now I have to find them all over again.
No, I've not slept. I tossed and turned for a few hours and gave up once the sun started peeking.

171. MOVE OUT
Don't pay the landlord a dime. They can't get blood out of a turnip. So you owe a dept you can't pay. No big deal. It happens.
Use your donations for a different place. We have to get you out of the cycle your in.
You had the same problems with PayPal not being able to get your $ to you any faster than gofundme. Gofundme me gets 7.9% + .30 cents per donation. DUers know how much we raise for you on the other hand. Right now that is hurting your fund raising effort here.
How was the $ raised by DU used last time? We never got any kind of a total even though we asked. We know it was well over $1,000.
What kind of job skills do you have? What are you willing to do? Without a job you will continually be at risk to lose your place to live.
Help us help you.

So the big, bad atheist liberals, full of priest and pope derision, and who can't go between bowel movements without demanding that church be taxed 104%, want to run RIGHT to the church when their luck runs out.
The church is better than I am - I'd tell that nasty skank to park her shopping cart outside Planned Parenthood to see what they have to offer her. We're sick of listening to liberal bullshit.

Sorry, but I've been on the phone with so many people getting information since 9 a.m. and I swear my ears are bleeding along with what little is left of my brain.
It took ages to find any attorneys that dealt with landlord/tenant issues in the area that were actually available to talk to, but I finally found three. These were different ones than the ones I talked to before just because I never bookmarked them and couldn't find them again. I also talked to someone in legal aid again.
All of them said to appeal - no question. All were amazed and appalled by the behavior of the district judge and never heard of anything like that happening before (aren't I just so lucky to get the biggest Republican asshole judge in creation) especially considering it was a "house falling down" situation that's so bad that the township inspector is making her fix everything by X amount of time. One said that because I'm low income I might not have to pay anything more to file the appeal than that $285.50 filing fee. This bit got confusing so I called the clerk at the county court again and talked to a supervisor that was helpful.
Though I'd have to pay the $285.50 filing fee regardless there's some provision or law for low income people where they may not have to also put up the amount of the judgment - that almost $2000 judgment ($1905 and change I think) which is apparently like collateral I guess if you lose the appeal and then that money goes to the landlord. Once I come in to file an appeal I get a pamphlet they have for us low income folks and someone there decides if I have to pay all the amount of the judgment, part of it or none of it. She said since I only have tomorrow and Monday (yes! because of the court being closed Friday for the holiday I get to have Monday as another day to file!) that I should come in with all of the money equaling the judgment amount since I won't have any more days left to come back again in case whoever makes this decision decides that I have to pay all or some of it in order to file at all. I can't go to the court tomorrow because I have to get the tires on the car fixed first or I'm afraid I won't make it, so it's going to have to be Monday - the last day I have.
Back to the attorneys again... legal aid (when I called before) was actually right that appealing may be a lot cheaper than paying the landlord the judgment, and if I do decide to pay the landlord the judgment it puts me right back to the beginning again though they didn't say anything about this law or whatever it is for low income people.
I have no idea who makes the decision about what if anything I'd need to pay concerning the judgment amount or what they base it on. For all I know it could be some jerk making these decisions willy nilly. They just keep telling me to bring the whole judgment amount (cash only) just in case I end up having to pay any of it or all of it to file the appeal. This seems nuts to me, but that's how they do it.
The problem I now have is gofundme because you can't get the money donated for 5 to 7 business days which is far too late. I don't know if you can get it any faster like with paypal with giving them banking info and so forth. Does anyone know? If I end up having to pay all or part of the judgment amount to even be able to file an appeal at all if I don't have the money in hand when I go to file the appeal for that then I end up screwed and with no time left to do anything. Has anyone here actually used gofundme and is there a way to get the money faster like paypal does?
After not being able to sleep for two nights in a row again I'm just about going to slide right under my desk.

Hey DUmmies :tongue:
We told you back in February this was probably a scam, and again when she had the landlord nailed in court. Enjoy supporting this deadbeat untill Scammer finally gets enough of her and kicks her ass off the island.

All you lurking lib DUmmies aren't racing to be the first to volunteer to house your colleague.
Some of you like OS are catching on to the scam.
Be careful though, because when you stand up to one of your fellow lib's scams...you start getting death threats.
You know, just like the pizza shop owners who are standing up to your RFRA scam you are trying to pull.

Ten dollars... geeezzz, it's an insult.

LOL! What a scam! TTW probably has this same thing on 5-10 different forums.
I don't know how it works in PA, but in TX it takes close to 3 months to get a deadbeat kicked out of your house. AND it costs about $400.00 to do it. Just another punch in the gut when you have to kick out someone that is 3-4 months behind by the time you get them out.

292. the assholes at a Conservative website are following this thread. So they probably screwed
over her Paypal account in the last day or so. Remember what those assholes did to Andy who actually had pancreatic cancer? They prevented him from getting money for hospital treatments.
All it would take is a few of the assholes to donate a dollar and then contact Paypal and claim it's fraud.
Uh-oh! After dear Andy's PayPal account got whacked, the next thing we heard was an obituary!
I hope grasswipe Judy Smith is keeping a close watch on coach.
This sounds serious!
A suggestion: If scammer DUmmy TorchTheWitch gets thrown out into the cold, she should contact Pam Dawson for a blanket.

14. Here is the original post from 2-13-15 that will answer a lot of questions
http://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1002&pid=6221474
Going back to lurker mode.
Someone must have pissed off the Big Guy.
Damn insensitive DUmmies.
If I understand, witchywoman says she lost her job b/c she didn't have hot water an thus could not shower. After the Northridge quake, we didn't have hot water for a week -- I went to a local gym and bought a freaking day pass so I could shower and GO TO WORK every day!
I think this excuse smells as bad as she would purported to have smelled after the water heater "exploded." BTW: did you ever see the Mythbusters episode where they disabled the safeties (which keeps water heaters from EXPLODING) and let it overheat. If her water heater exploded, the building would have been damn near LEVELED!

176. In my humble opinion, the people on this thread who are doubting the OP
are doing a disservice to a long time member of this site.
I feel that doubters should stay out of this thread.
Expressing disbelief of the OP on a progressive website is not the way to go, in my opinion.
Those whom do not believe the OP have the ignore or hide thread option. People can make up their own minds, and negative and disbelieving comments in this thread have the possibility of doing more harm than good.
Hilarious! Sounds like people here defending Pam Dawson's "blanket" bouncy!

Only 29 more days until the 10th anniversary of the scam that rocked the internet.
It began at 3:30 p.m. central time, 2:30 p.m. mountain time, on April 30, 2005.
My, my, how tempus fugits.
An interesting sub thread about Scamdy has developed in that monstrosity.

362. People donated to get him help he needed, pay medical bills. Cons got hold of it, got the money
locked down so it was inaccessible by yelling he was defrauding people. He was unable to get the medical care he needed because of this. And then he died.
He was an old time DUer, one of the first here, working on voting fraud. He was real and a really nice caring guy who might have lived if he was able to access the money DUers donated to pay the required upfront money for his health care.

398. That's not quite what happened
There was a delay in getting the money to the hospital, but Andy did have his Whipple procedure. Unfortunately, he became septic after the procedure and passed due to that. The sepsis was from the surgery, not the delay.

415. Actually the surgery itself was not a success. It was too late, had spread everywhere in his body...
And while they spent a lot of time removing what they could see (he was opened up from collar bone to crotch) they knew from the amount and location of tumours that they could not have gotten all of it. It was that type that spread very quickly.
People were reading him DU threads with good wishes in the end and he enjoyed it, was very grateful for the help. And very frightened. Very sad time

417. True.
I was giving the thumbnail. The delay in the funding would not have made a difference, given the type and grade of cancer, since it was days, not months. Unfortunately, nothing short of a miracle could have won that war. The sepsis post surgery stole any time the surgery may have given him and made those last days even worse.
I remember his "bean spill" threads shortly before the worst came to pass.
I also remember when he was first describing severe liver symptoms, some asses telling him to take milk thistle and bile pills. What he was describing was so horrific that "go to the ER right now!!" was the only sane response.

419. When I met him in DC he was having his first symptoms and looked jaundiced....
having stomach issues and feeling bad. I kept saying dude, you need a doctor asap. He waited a few months until he felt worse. No insurance and fear I think. Bad combo.
Of course this will all be ignored to maintain another DUmp myth.

As well it should, since almost none of these DUmmies ever met the sodomite.
Only coach had an opportunity to see the actual carcass, up close and personal.
Otherwise, his illness, his surgery, and his death are all fantasies manufactured by the perpetrators of the scam.
There was never even an obituary outside of a Seattle hippie sheet that was carrying scam updates throughout the saga.
I can't wait for Bill O'Reilly's new "Killing Andy" book.

<sob story>
Well dummie I got some advice for you. Call the White House switchboard and ask to speak to obumbles. Tell him your story. He is such an awesome president I am sure he will call up the landlord and get you fixed up real quick. If you can't get a hold of him, he is busy after all, start with dem senators. One dem senator has got to be available to help you. If they are all too busy, they are busy after all trying to thwart the evil GOP's plans to make the USA into a dirty water, dirty air, polluted hell hole, then you can start with the reps in the House. If that doesn't work, call up your state dem reps.
After all, they care about you and all you have to do is tell them that you are a loyal dem voter. I bet all your troubles will go away once they are made aware of your plight. I bet they would even let you shack up with them for a while until you get on your feet.
5 cents please.

94. at this point things couldn't be worse
I got wrong information from the court about when I'd have to pay the next full month of rent. I had thought that after I pay this $850 that's due by Friday that I'd then have 30 days to work like crazy and stock up as much money as I could and get out of here even if it's just some tiny place where I can have Yoshi and at least my most vital stuff (maybe store the rest of my stuff somewhere or something like that). I wouldn't even care if it was in a crappy neighborhood as long as it wasn't too far from the city since that's where I'd be most likely to do any kind of work whether the catering bartending or a temp office job or whatever.
But I just found out recently that the countdown for that 30 days started on April 6th the day I filed the appeal and that I have to pay a full month's rent by May 6th or that's it for the appeal and in 10-15 days the constable comes to throw me out! So, after paying this $850 on Friday which I have thanks to you folks that donated to the gofundme page I'll have just a few hundred dollars left to my name and only about 10 days before I'd have to pay $1250 to the court! Now I can't figure out what the hell filing as a pauper did for me other than let me file the appeal at all. I'm not any less of a pauper than I was when I filed the appeal, and I can't figure out how anyone that normally lives from paycheck to paycheck could possibly come up with all that money that fast.
Meanwhile after I filed the appeal and had these 20 days to otherwise try to find government help, charities, work or whatever to help me keep a roof over my head, Yoshi and at least my most important stuff one of my brother's got in touch with me to try to help with the government stuff since I was hitting a really frustrating wall with that. Just trying to get someone on the phone at all is a hair pulling nightmare. You get stuck in a runaround of automated phone crap that's just maddening. My brother even said it drove him batty. Then I get a call from him, and he told me that he talked to someone at his gym that works at one of these agencies in my county (you have to go through the agencies in the county that you live in - no other county will so much as talk to you if you aren't a resident). She worked at some place called NHS that I'd not heard of before, but when I looked them up on the internet I couldn't imagine how in the world they could do anything for me since they work with almost exclusively people that are alcoholics or drug addicts, but also work with some people that have brain injuries or autism or some other serious mental health problems.
I'll have to go into the nightmare with the government agencies later because I just have to go to bed now as tomorrow I have sooooo much to do and have to be up really early. But thanks so much for asking me and Yoshi. He's doing as good as ever, but right now after getting completely jerked around by these useless agencies wasting my time that was far better spent elsewhere and now finding out that I have to pay a months rent by May 6th, I'm just not seeing any way to keep a roof over our heads. I'm so damn scared that I'm going to lose him! I have to struggle not to cry and just curl up in the fetal position and give up at this point since I can't think of a bloody thing I've not already done. even if I got a job a week ago and worked every hour God made to pay the damn court after what I have to give them on Friday there's just no way I could come up with that amount of money even if I gave up food and toilet paper (and I'm very nearly out of both).
I also just found out from gofundme that my page still hasn't been approved to be listed as a searchable page so the only people that can find it even now are anyone I've given the direct link to. They said I had to change or delete one of the photos and I sent them an email asking which one, and they've not gotten back to me yet. They also say that most donations come from networking through people that you already know. Great.
I'm so sorry I have nothing good to report. It's all terrible. And now I REALLY need to get to bed, so I'll have to get back to this when I can scrounge some time. Thanks again for asking about me and Yoshi. Jesus, I can't lose him!

IOW, it's everyone else's fault! The landlord should simply understand it's unemployed. Daddy government, which every DUer wants more of, won't spank the landlord and force him to let the DUmmie to stay rent free until such time as it secures that CEO position making 750k a year at which time it can move into a mansion and vacay in the Hamptons with the boy king.
