Also, it is from two years ago and laws/statutes/etc may have changed since then. 

In addition, six cities in the United States have enacted similar laws – Urbana, IL; Madison, WI; Santa Cruz and San Francisco, CA; Washington, D.C; and Binghamton, NY.While there is no federal statute that specifically identifies obese individuals as a protected class, employees and job applicants across the country have initiated lawsuits alleging disability discrimination on the basis of their weight.

Our takeaways: Just as we create and communicate our criteria for investment neighborhoods and type of units, we will create and communicate criteria for potential applicants, so that we can follow any relevant statutes and streamline the application process for our PM. 

Well I looked it up, and there is an explicit Florida Statute concerning advances of rent, specifically Title VI Chapter 83.49 "Deposit money or advance rent; duty of landlord and tenant".You have to place it in the same account as the security deposit, and not co-mingle with other funds. 

I can say that I didn't receive notice of a quiet title action and that the County tax office has my correct mailing address.The adverse poss. statute is 20yrs in Virginia. 

If I were you I would tread carefully and do some research into Ontario Fair Housing statutes before I 'prefer' students over families or vice versa, for my rental unit(s), unless they are under the very same roof I live under too and were part of my 'fraternity' or what ever as housemates etc.http://www.ohrc.on.ca/sites/default/files/attachments/Human_Rights_and_Rental_Housing_in_Ontario%3A_Background_Paper.pdf

in my most recent tenant drama, a couple who claimed to be 'husband and wife' and 'childless' turned out to be unmarried, have 3 kids(who were in and out of foster care), along with a whole other slew of mistruths. i'd simply like to know that, given federal (and local) statutes that strictly prohibit discrimination based on family status, is there any recourse in dealing with a situation where a couple presents as husband and wife (and/or as without children) when once approved, they move in and are quite bold about the fact that they actually aren't married and even go as far as to state that nor do ever plan to get married because its 'just a piece of paper'(the latter only with which do i agree) and then nonchalantly march in with an army of undisclosed children they claim are their own?

But the good news is that your friend can use any part of the statute they qualify for. 

So, unless he files bankruptcy on it, it will hound him forever, and you just may be surprised one year, when you get a check from the collection agency.You don't need a judgment to get the collection agency after them, but with a judgment, there would be no expiration date on the debt - unless they file bankruptcy.Also, if they ever want to buy a house, I believe they have to pay off any judgments, as the judgments can become liens against the property.Another thing to keep in mind, is if you don't sue them within a certain time frame, you lose the right to do it, under the Statute of Limitations, which is normally around 1 - 3 years.

I'm not aware of a similar Ohio statute that would apply state wide (though admittedly I've never searched for one either).I only advise my clients use it in very specific situations, as it is typically slower than eviction.
