My landlord will not renew my lease because I'm pregnant.

OP posted:

I live in NY and my landlord decided not to renew my lease this August because my 1 bedroom is "not suitable for 3 people". I know she allows couples in her apartments because there was one living above me in a similarly sized 1 bedroom. I'm the only one on my lease right now and I would have my boyfriend moving in too. Is there any legal action I can take? We found a 2 bedroom but have to break the least early. Can I stop paying rent since she is being discriminatory?

quote:

No. You can't stop paying rent on your current contract just because you don't like that she's not renewing the contract.

You can talk to an attorney about potential discrimination issues. Generally speaking, there's not much issue with max occupancy rules, so long as they're applied across the board. The fact that there are two people living above you doesn't mean that she must let you have three people in yours.

OP posted:

An infant does not legally count as a person, though.

:crossarms: That's a bold defense but I've got a sneaking suspicion it's not gonna fly

EDIT: Oh man her reasoning gets even better

OP posted:

No lmao. In NY, you are not legally obligated to report any persons under the age of 18 and landlords are not legally allowed to discriminate against families with children according to the fair housing act.

quote:

Yes, that's true, but that's different from rules on occupancy. If they allow three adults, but not two adults and a child, that's discriminatory. If they don't allow three adults, either, that's not discriminatory.

OP posted:

What I'm confused about, though, is if I'm not obligated to report minors, then they shouldn't count in the occupancy. It would be different if I were attempting to move 10 children into a one bedroom, because I think that counts as a health hazard in some way. (Not a lawyer or a social worker), but an infant isn't required to have a bedroom and would share ours. The space is plenty big enough.

quote:

Just because you aren't obligated to report the child, it doesn't mean the landlord can't find out through other means.

The classic "If they can't see it, it's not there!" legal defense! Now applied to babies! :confuoot:

Fair housing law states that you cannot discriminate based on familial status, and an unborn child cannot be taken into consideration when making lease arrangements. I had to learn all that poo poo when I was working renting out apartments.

E: I'm not sure if it was by law, but we allowed a maximum of 2x + 1 residents per apartment, where x is the number of rooms.

I was told by /r/dogs to take my post over here.

I am a very experience dog owner but my girlfriend is... unappreciable, at best. She currently has some sort of bizarre doodle breed she paid $10,000 for (I wish I was kidding, folks) and this dog is insane. Zero training, the thing didn't even know sit when I met him.

I have since trained him and he's decently behaved around me. She still lets him run wild around her. The dog is massively overweight despite my best measures because every time I increase his exercise my girlfriend increases his food. Speaking of, she only feeds him hot dogs. As in she cooks hot dogs, puts them in buns, adds toppings and then feeds him about 5-6 per meal three times a day. I don't know how he is still alive.

I try to feed him kibble but she continues to sneak the hot dogs behind my back. I started keeping guard in the kitchen, throwing out any hot dogs that appear in the fridge but she still managed to stuff him full with them. I've gone so far as to camp out in front of the fridge for 2 weeks straight and she bought a mini fridge behind my back and hid it in the cabana. Stuffed full with hot dogs. I finally taught the dog to potty train despite her best efforts. She will not let him play with other dogs because she is very overprotective of diseases and doesn't even let him go outside (I have to exercise him when she's gone or very early before she wakes up). I've started sneaking him away during the day to a training facility so he can be socialized under the inspection of a trainer.

She refuses to cut the dogs hair so it's a dirty matted rag walking around. She says dogs in the wild don't cut their hair and she won't either. INSANITY. So last week while she was at work I shaved the dog's hair off. She came home and had a complete meltdown, screaming and sobbing uncontrollable. She ran outside and gathered all the hair and is keeping it in a box on our kitchen table. And has since rejected the dog and instead pets the shaved hair.

This morning she threw away a $60 bag of dog food and told me the dog must've eaten it overnight and would need hot dogs until we could get more. I have her on camera throwing away the entire bag that I paid for. This isn't the first time. She's tried to hide and throw away his leashes several times so I couldn't walk him among other things.

I'll hate the woman who demanded the AC be turned off on the long van ride back from a festival because she was cold, tyvm. I was suffering from extreme heatstroke at the time and had a patch of skin that actually turned into a weird sort of raised piece of brown leathery poo poo after a few days. This was on a 98ish degree day in Missouri with all of the humidity.

I'm uncircumcised, and I read somewhere that I should be cleaning my penis under the foreskin regularly, and I've never once done it. Better late than never, right?
I just wanted to make sure I'm doing it right. I've read up on it, but I'd really appreciate any tips or pointers you may have. Video or image guides (not too gross, please) would also be really appreciated
I've also read conflicting things about soap. What should I be using, no soap or mild soap?
Thank you, everyone! Have a great day

I've been tryin' to speak with you for a long time
In Oregon you must allow 2 adults and one child per bedroom so pregnant lady may be right about that depending on NY law.

Also the fact that she is pregnant and the landlord was dumb enough to say that was the reason for not renewing the lease. That is blatant, overt disparate treatment and family status and pregnancy amd plans to become pregnant or habe children in the future cannot be used as a reson to decline you. That is probably a slam dunk dair housing act case.

she might not be using the correct legal terminology but given the state law her reasoning makes sense and I'm not sure why you seem to feel the need to mock what appears to be just an average person being discriminated against by their landlord

Me [24F] with my husband [28 M] of three years, Hes been cheating on me with women from reddit my entire pregnancy

It sucks but I've been holding onto this for far too long, my husband has literally been cheating on me with women from reddit, he pays them for videos, pictures and more. I tried confronting him about it multiple times and hes literally given me nothing but BS lies and excuses.

It isnt going to stop. The one woman who he constantly speaks to sends him messages at 2 Am and this is how i cam to find out earlier on in my pregnancy.

Its been going on forever now and I'm just days away from giving birth. At first I didn't pay it any mind, i asked about it in hopes that he'd stop but he hasn't.

He accuses me of cheating on him everyday and restricts me from going to see my family, the only time I'm really allowed out is when I have an appointment and after i go to my mothers.

Hes been calling me some pretty nasty names and overall has been really disgusting towards me when hes at work. when he comes home hes a loving and caring man but i know its just a show.

Hes shown me pictures of this other woman and asked if i'd like to have a threesome with her. now he asks me if he can go and have sex with someone else. I just don't know what to do anymore. After seeing the pictures I went a little nuts and found out the identity of the other woman, I found out where she lives and everything but I realize that it isnt her fault.

Tonight hes texting me to argue his reasoning for continuing with this and I just got really angry and messaged her on reddit.

I feel really sad and at my last straw honestly. I never thought I'd feel this worthless especially not while on the edge of bring a child into this world.

tl;dr: I'm so ready to give up

Somewhere in the area of 40% of domestic violence victims are men. They tend to use weapons and guys end up keeping it quiet because they're really ashamed.

And before anyone gets annoyed, I'm not minimizing the huge issue of domestic violence against women, just wanted to say that guys shouldn't be mocked when this comes out.
