tbh i would call a lawyer and read your lease carefully. they always put so many reasons why they can give you the boot. key pad issue is more cause they want access at all times into the unit. cats, if on original lease can't be held against you. you have to see the rules about visitors and how many consecutive days guests (you) can stay before you would have to be added to lease. stay up til then leave a day come back, idk. it sounds like they really want that unit though. maybe they increased rent and are trying to get more from a new tenant.

They are doing construction on the laundry room, with which I happen to share a wall. I've thought that they maybe want my unit because of that.
Is that legal?

I agree with Pretty Kitty, call a lawyer that deals with property leases sometimes they will see you no cost to see if you have a case. Sounds fishy to me, may just want the locks changed and cats gone who knows. But we are in California you can sue anyone for anything these days......

the answer is read the lease. if it says no animals and you have animals you have a problem. you aren't the tenant. if there is no subleasing without the landlord's approval you have a problem. if you wanted to force legal action your mother would be named in any law suit by the landlord.

For the record, I always pick up after the "little fuckers" -- I'm not a piece of shit like the ones they drop

Emotional support animals? Is that a real thing? Lol

You have until the date on the notice to comply or they can move forward with evicting you. You have the right to go to small claims per your oral agreements but good luck with that!
Thanks the notice serious, sounds like your looking toward an eviction notice.
All that really matters is what your lease says. Sounds like the violations are true, therefore correct them, or start packing

I would just move, never been one to stay where I'm not wanted.

I agree with omegasession, but the outcome of your unlawful detainer depends what the lease says about authorized occupants and pets. PM me if you want to discuss the lease

Get qualified legal advice from an attorney with experience handling evictions. No reason to panic, but remember that time is limited because it sounds like you've already received a 30-day notice to correct or quit, as required by law.
I highly recommend Bet Tzedek Legal Services, excellent pro bono and/or very low cost legal representation for tenants facing eviction notices, especially tenants with limited means.

Well, you gone this far! May as well over stay your welcome, stop paying rent and make them get the marshals to force you out!
The soonest an eviction can take place is on the fourth business day after the writ is filed. The writ is valid for 75 days. If the tenant is not evicted in the 75 days, then you will have to file a new (or "alias") writ.
Remember, it is illegal for you to evict the tenant except by scheduling an eviction through the U.S. Marshals Service. The U.S. Marshals must be present during the eviction.
Good Luck! You Will Need IT!

as a property owner in california, i want -all- adults living in a unit to be on the lease. it's a legal thing. it gives me the ability to hold those adults to the letter of the lease agreement under penalty of eviction. otherwise you're just dealing with squatters.
can they do it? sure. your mother violated the lease. she violated the lease by allowing you to live there (an unauthorized resident). they can now cancel the lease. you do not have any agreement (lease) with them so they can evict you.
if the old manager approved a variance (the film on the window), there should be a record of that. if not, then you're in violation of the lease. just because the property manager doesn't perform repairs does not give you the ability to violate the lease agreement and make unapproved modifications to the property.
bottom line is, you gotta follow the rules. if you don't you're subject to the consequences. those consequences can include cancelling the lease and evicting you.
i doubt any lawyer will tell you he can resolve this in a way that is to your liking. but i could be wrong.

Unless you're a fugitive or violate federal law, the US Marshals don't give a shit about your eviction issues.
It's the county marshal or possibly a county deputy sheriff who serves all the papers.

"She decided it would be a good idea to apply ONLY in my mom's name, leaving me completely out of the lease" 
What part of that sounds like a good idea?
|
|

The "good idea" part. If that's the hardest question today, I'm a taken a long siesta.

"She decided it would be a good idea to apply ONLY in my mom's name, leaving me completely out of the lease"
What part of that sounds like a good idea?
The part where it's going to hurt her moms credit score ?
On the upside, she can squat there and drag the eviction out a few months and live there for free

I would think blowing the land lord on a regular basis may be the easy answer here.

^^^ Finally!!! Someone with a common sense, HX-appropriate answer.

Are you assuming it is a he? Are you sure it is not a she? i e the landlord
|
|
|
even if its a 'she', she might like a little lip service. you never know for sure until you ask.
btw, if that's the case, we want pictures.

Another possibility is that the cited violations of the lease (the window treatments, pets, etc) are only handy JUSTIFICATIONS for the eviction.
Possibly the management has other reasons for wanting Miley out, and merely sought a ready, at-hand legal means of accomplishing that, when the real reason may be something else.

Loki, are you suggesting that strange men are coming and going at all times of the day and night?

As the movie title says..... "Get Out"
|
|
|
It really is as simple a thing as "are you on the leasing contract?" "No?" "Then get out."
Also most people would look the other way as long as there are no issues that affect the property or other tenants. If someone sees something shady then you are done for.
And yeah it does cost a lot and it is very annoying to get someone to move out of your property since most of the time people feel they are right but the law is all about being technically right and as such you don't have a case.
Just be annoying and squat and have your mom get into another lease for you before her credit is wrecked lol

It's impossible to say without reading the lease. Arguably all the items are curable since I doubt you signed a written sublet agreement with your mother. They may also have waived several of the potential breaches, but their agreement likely has an anti-waiver clause.
There's probably more to this though, because generally landlords don't evict a rent paying tenant unless there are other problems that really affect their property.
You're probably best to just take the deal, get you mother off the hook and get another place.

These "i need help with (fill in the blank)" blogs are hilarious.
I'm breaking the law/doing something illegal, but I think I should be able to continue to do it. These assholes are out to get me. Halp.
You and your fucked up lives.
