If the drug dealer is going through a rehabilitation program (on the outside or inside of prison), it may also serve him well to make amends.

I was shooting responsible by the age of 4 years old with my father, and yes, I am personally quite passionate about my 2nd amendment rights.

I know then if I need to amend my offer based on the amount of work to be done.

Check your laws, see what your options are, and amend the lease to make it easier for the tenant to understand.

Call your own attorney to get this matter quashed and show you won't just bend over and take it.Second, get your attorney, or possibly a new one, to amend your lease to include necessary hold harmless language as well as necessary wording about limitations on suing you, tenant agrees to reimburse you legal expenses etc.  

Would it be ok to just amend the language in the current lease agreement myself, or do I need to get a lawyer to write a new one for me?

I will be amending the lease for the swing set and they will need to get an insurance policy of $2mil plus sign a 'Hold Harmless' agreement, that will be filed. 

And I agree, that you can press charges for a bounced check, too.Kick him out and then wait to see if he includes you in his list of "amends" for his 4th step :-)

We allow for up to one past eviction, but we will look into the circumstances, what they have done since, and require them to made amends.

I'm planning on making an amendment to her lease with her "guest" on it stating liability and an increase of $30 per month to cover the utilities I cover for another adult.
