Tenent suing me in Indianapolis Indiana, need help
Tenant removed my shed and replaced it with a larger one. Tenant gave me 30 days notice to vacate. After 45 days, tenant moved out and left the shed, I learned that because of its size, it required a permit to be there, which tenant never acquired. I had it removed because I was worried I would get fined by the city. 10 months later, tenant is suing me for 8k for the cost of the shed that they had ample time to remove. Tenant is claiming a law that says any property a tenant leaves, landlord must keep for a period of one year so the tenant has time to reclaim their property. Is this true? What is the best way to move forward to win this case? Any help is appreciated.

If he does sue, you can always counter-sue for your loss shed and any fees associated with removing it off your property.
