Defenses Against Eviction
Authored By: Texas RioGrande Legal Aid
- Read this in:
- Spanish / Español
Once you receive the notice to vacate and even before you receive the notice from the constable for your court hearing, you should consider whether you have any defenses available to the eviction suit. In a nonpayment of rent eviction case, the Justice of the Peace will not consider most cases of hardship (e.g., car breaking down, being in the hospital, losing your job).
[Note: If you are in public housing, federally subsidized housing or have a Section 8 voucher, there are many more defenses available. For example, you may have a defense to nonpayment of rent if the public housing authority did not reduce your rent after you lost income. Or, you might have a defense against eviction if your subsidized housing landlord did not give you proper notice required by law. Also, such a landlord must have good cause (like a serious violation of your lease) to evict you.]
Defenses against eviction are either procedural, meaning that the suit was improperly brought before the court, or substantive, meaning that the eviction suit is invalid because you have not violated your lease agreement. Either way, it will be up to you to raise these defenses before the judge and provide evidence to support your claims.
Here are some examples of procedure defenses:
- Notice to vacate was given orally and not in writing
- Eviction suit was filed before the expiration of the deadline in the notice to vacate
- Notice to vacate did not give the tenant at least three days to vacate, and the lease does not allow for a shorter deadline
- Notice to vacate was not delivered properly, for example:
- It was given to someone who does not reside at the premises
- It was given to someone who is younger than 16 years of age
- It was affixed on the outside of the door, which would be proper only if the landlord cannot enter the premises because of an alarm system, a dangerous animal, or a keyless bolting device
- Notice to vacate was premature, because the lease or applicable law requires the landlord to give a tenant an opportunity to respond to a notice of proposed eviction
If you have a procedural defense against eviction you may be able to convince the J.P. to dismiss the eviction lawsuit. Once your landlord corrects the mistake, the landlord will usually be able to re-file the lawsuit. Nevertheless, a procedural defense may allow you more time to come to an agreement with your landlord, prepare your case against your landlord, or move out.
Here are some examples of substantive defenses:
- Waiver?for example, you have consistently paid late rent, and it was always accepted by your landlord, and your landlord never warned you before filing an eviction lawsuit that late rent would no longer be accepted
- Retaliation?for example, your landlord is evicting you for your complaints about repairs that have not been done to the unit
- Discrimination?for example, your landlord is evicting you because of your race, disability, familial status (children), age, national origin, religion, or sex
- Landlord caused tenant to default?for example, your landlord refused to accept your rent and now is trying to evict you for nonpayment
If you win your eviction case with a substantive defense, the J.P. will grant you possession of the unit, and, if the landlord does not appeal the judgment, the landlord cannot re-file an eviction case for the same reason.

Stories from people who were children during World War II and the objects in this exhibit animate the past and inform us of a time when war took over daily life. "Retrospect is a very interesting thing," says Ruthie Kallnder. "At the time I don't recall any of the information we got as being propaganda," but the government tried to influence children to make "necessary" sacrifices. Propagandists made the war a battle between good and evil, democracy and fascism. They also asked children to share in the war effort. In response, many children took on more responsibilities. Ruthie explains that boys and girls felt "if that's what it was going to take" to win they "were willing to do it." The memories of the people in this exhibit and their wartime actions show the power of propaganda's messages and its lasting affect on their lives. Propaganda posters, children's books, and classroom assignments demonstrate how propagandists reached children and involved them in the national war effort.

I've been thinking about this following the posts about Snuff. I had a look at the timeline on L-space and it seems to me, to be a classic case of over-thinking a subject.
As far as I can see, it looks about like this;
Books run in approximately chronological order in more-or-less real time, covering a period of about twelve years from Guards Guards to Snuff.This means that Carrot ages from about 18 to 30 or so. Angua is a similar age, on the assumption that werewolves age similarly to humans ( implied but not confirmed ).
Nanny Ogg and Granny Weatherwax are somewhere in their later sixties at the time of Snuff and about sixty when they first appear. Mustrum Ridcully is a little younger than Granny Weatherwax. Magrat is about the same age as Carrot, Verence being somewhat older. Vimes is about 52 at the time of Snuff, making him 40-ish in Guards Guards and late teens in Night Watch
This in turn, means that Fred Colon and Mustrum Ridcully are about the same age. Nobby Nobbs appears to be about 10 or 12 years old in Nightwatch, late twenties in Guards Guards and early 40s in Snuff This means that he would have served with Fred Colon in the A-M military when he was in his late teens or early 20s, since this is old history by the time of Guards Guards - which appears by elimination to be 12 or 12 years after Night Watch
Small Gods predates Guards Guards by about 100 years meaning that it immediately pre-dates the birth of Cohen
Colour of Magic , Light Fantastic and Equal Rites are outside this timeframe, as is Eric/Faust. Pyramids appears to be roughly contemporary but can't be accurately dated.
Ponder Stibbons ages from about 18 to early 20s, which isn't really consistent with his developing role, but never mind.
There are a range of inconsistencies which are just that and shouldn't be scrutinised too hard.

US-Mexico gun trafficking grows
A growing percentage of U.S. firearms sales are destined for Mexico — over two percent of total sales — and the illicit southbound trade in weapons is greater than previously assumed, according to a University of San Diego study released Monday.
The annual volume of 253,000 of weapons purchased for trafficking from 2010 to 2012 is nearly three times higher than the period from 1997 to 1999, according to the report.
The way of the gun
Cross-border trade represented annual revenues of $127.2 million for the U.S. firearms industry during the period from 2010 to 2012, the report states.
"The numbers are far higher than we had anticipated," said Topher McDougal, an assistant professor at USD. He is one of the four authors of the report, entitled "The Way of the Gun: Estimating Firearms Traffic Across the U.S.-Mexico Border," produced by the university's Trans-Border Institute and the Igarape Institute in Brazil.
The study found that without demand from Mexico, 47 percent of U.S. registered gun suppliers would cease to exist. "It's a stunning number," said McDougal.
The report said 2.2 percent of U.S domestic firearms sales were attributable to U.S.-Mexico traffic during the recent study period compared to 1.75 percent in 1993.
The study also found that U.S. and Mexican authorities "are seizing a comparatively small number of firearms at the border" — about 15 percent of the total numbers of weapons purchased in the U.S. for trafficking purposes.
Mexico has strict firearms laws and only one gun shop, located in Mexico City, and yet gun-related violence has risen dramatically in recent years as drug trafficking organizations have battled for territory and fought with government forces: As many as 120,000 people have died in Mexico since 2006, many at the hands of guns.
"Most of these weapons are made in the United States," said the study. "Yet curiously, an empirically robust treatment of the scale and volume of firearms trafficking from the United States to Mexico has yet to be attempted."
The new study is based on research of federal firearms licenses to sell small arms that are carried by gun shops and pawn shops throughout the United States. One of the study authors told MCT News Service that many killings in Mexico are carried out with handguns.
The authors look at U.S. gun sales county by county, calculating demand for firearms and distance from the U.S.-Mexico border, comparing 1993-1999 to 2010-2012. The figures were used to come up with estimates of total demand for firearms trafficking, both in terms of numbers of weapons and the sales.
Previous attempts to quantify southbound flow of weapons have focused on seizures at the border, or traced firearms confiscated inside the country by police agencies.
"We wanted to see if you could statistically attribute the superabundance of (gunshops) along the border to the distance from the border," McDougal said.
"Ongoing government efforts to regulate firearms trade and trafficking across the U.S.-Mexico border are largely ineffective," the report states. Improvements in Mexico's ability to seize illicit firearms, "are still meager in relation to the overall volume of weapons likely crossing the border."

I actually think it isn't working. The firmware hack looks like it works, but not the gps thing. It shows that it gets in satellites, even though my phone (which has built-in gps) is off and the NXT is the only BT device in the house that is on (even works with bt off). And ofcourse I think the Airforce/LEGO plane thing was fake. And I really don't belive in that levitation sensor thing either. The video was uploaded on april 1st, and the ball looks like it is being held up by a string or something (like the strings used on fishing rods, you know :-P ).

AUGUSTA, Ga. -- An additional round of tuberculosis testing is planned for students and faculty at Butler High School.
Health officials are planning on going back to the school to do skin tests on everyone who tested negative previously to make sure they have not turned positive.
This is being done as a precaution. Officials say they have not uncovered any additional cases since they last reported that three people had tested positive.
Overall, 500 students and staff members have been tested.
There is no confirmed date for the testing, but officials say it will probably take place at the end of January.

The long and unhappy saga of the Local Sustainability Fund

Longing to get out from under your desk and back on the frontline? Andrew Chaggar discusses his frustrations with working in the back-office, and why it's worth it.
I'm typing this month's blog with the sun streaming in through the window. As a result of the glorious weather I'm increasingly conscious that summer is almost upon us and that I've now been back in the UK, and therefore off the front-line, for almost five months.
With our projects in Haiti transitioned to local partners, I returned to the UK in January and since then have been working on a range of back-office tasks which have all been tied together by the development of an over-arching business plan.
While we've definitely "broken the back" of the work involved there is still a fair amount to do before I'll feel ready to deploy overseas again. Updating our back-office was, after all, why I came home so rushing the job now seems frivolous. At the same time however, I am starting to get a little frustrated at the amount of time things are taking. I'm keen to get my hands dirty again and my feet are getting "itchier" by the day.
These conflicting priorities are, of course, neither new nor unique to myself. Tension between front-line and administrative needs are very familiar not only to me, but also to my fellow disaster responders and the sector as a whole.
I started off as a disaster response volunteer due to my own personal involvement in the 2004 Asian tsunami. When I originally signed up I simply wanted to provide hands-on help to fellow disaster survivors. However, as I became a project manager, my responsibilities increased and I inevitably spent more and more time managing other volunteers who were doing the actual front-line work. While this was not what I originally envisaged myself doing I came to accept the necessity of the situation.
Since I co-founded our charity this trend has continued, as demonstrated by my current circumstances. What's more, I've also seen others beginning to face their own, similar, internal conflicts. In Haiti for example volunteers often joined us on a fairly casual basis before moving into roles with greater responsibility and, often as a consequence, more time in the office.
As office-based work isn't as tangible or 'glamorous' it could often be hard for these essential individuals to adjust to the bravado and banter of tight-knit construction teams returning to base at the end of a day's "real work" digging foundations or pouring concrete. As a result an important part of my own role was reminding others that their role was also vital.
Beyond disaster response I'm sure others working in the wider charitable sector also feel similar tensions in regards to their own personal motivations when working on back-office tasks - after all, I don't think many of us plan to become administrators.
Of course, this tension between front-line and administrative needs doesn't only relate to the motivations of staff and volunteers, it's also of huge relevance to donors. In much the same way that most of us don't picture ourselves as administrators when we first get involved in the sector, donors don't often picture themselves funding back-office needs.
This is, in itself, a much discussed issue and not one I'm going to revisit in-depth now. However, I did come recently across a great analogy on the necessity of administration costs in Saundra Schimmelpfennig's eBook "Lies, White Lies, and Accounting Practices: Why nonprofit overheads don't mean what you think they mean" which I thought was worth sharing:
"Imagine walking into... Burger King (or whatever fast food restaurant you frequent) and insisting that you will only pay for whatever is actually on your hamburger. You'll give them money for the cost of the bun, ketchup, hamburger patty, and pickles. But you refuse to pay for staff wages, building rental, electricity... [What kind of product could they produce?] How long would they stay in business?"
So, if like me at the moment, you sometimes find yourself wondering how you went from the glamorous world of front-line work to the more tedious tasks of finance, marketing and business planning then take heart - your restaurant is likely to produce a far better hamburger.

As one of those backroom 'boyz', I cannot emphasis enough the the importantce of the work they do. Without them the organisation would not function, let alone raise funds and profile. Unfortunately, when funding is tight it is often the backroom organisational infrastructure that suffers the heaviest cuts as funders/doners don't like to see the 'front-line delivery KPIs/targets suffering. I know this from personal experience as I am now unemployed as a result of this type of policy...and finding it difficult to find posts, that will utilise my expertise in the current funding environment.

Totally agree about the value of back-office functions. In a recent survey we undertook, charities told us they needed additional skills such as organisational and fundraising strategy, marketing, research and evaluation and finance in order to meet the challenges of the year ahead. Day-to-day admin support was also listed by nearly 30% of those charities. That's why they are definitely 'skilled volunteers'.

Nice analogy! Thank you for that. Reminds me of a dear friend of mine who once gave £1k to Oxfam...on the basis that it had to spent on admin only. (I know I know - that would probably cost even more to process, but I guess she was trying to make a point)

American Idol
Who is Paul Jolley? American Idol 2013 Contestant Background Info
We really like this guy, but we're not sure if he is the total package needed to win American Idol 2013. Paul Jolley may be one of the cutest contestants in Season 12, but can he make it all the way to the finale?
Country music is a whole lot more now than just an attractive face, having a signature twang and writing some cheeseball lyrics. Many American Idol 2013 hopefuls are putting a modern face on the genre this season. Paul Jolley, who we met at Baton Rouge auditions, is one of the many who have impressed the judges by going this route.
If living in Nashville makes you legit, then Paul has a leg up on the others. Originally from Palmersville, Tennessee, the handsome singer now lives in the hub for all things country. In fact, Paul has reportedly opened for a number of country artists, including Chely Wright, Tammy Cochran, Roy Clark, and more. He has also won over 100 talent contests in his burgeoning career.
The thing that struck us the most about his audition was how much his moniker fits his persona. The guy was downright jovial. After meeting Rachel Hale on The Queen Mary, who became known for her infectious smile as much as her angelic voice, we feel like we might have to take on a new role -- matchmaker. These two would make the cutest and most optimistic country couple on the block! Hey, it's just a thought.
So far, Paul Jolley has made it all the way to the Season 12 Top 9. Now the voters will have to decide how much further he gets!

Saint Jerome, part of an altarpiece
Donato dei Bardi worked in Genoa, a city that had close ties to France in the early fifteenth century and where the artist could familiarize himself with the smooth surfaces and intricate details of Franco-Flemish painting. The refined qualities of hair and fur in the figure of Saint Jerome reflect Donato's inspiration from Northern painting.
Saint Jerome is often shown in a cardinal's robe and hat to reflect his work for the Church. The open book and the pen refer to the saint's scholarly accomplishments: he was the first to translate the New Testament from Hebrew and Greek into Latin, a text that much later became known as the Vulgate. A lion almost always accompanies Jerome, who was said to have removed a thorn from its paw, thus making a loyal friend of the wild beast.
- Artist: Donato de' Bardi, Italian, Lombard-Ligurian School, active 1426-1450/51
- Medium: Tempera and and tooled gold on panel

Stela of Maaty and Dedwi
The sculptor who carved this colorful funerary stela of the official Maaty and his wife, Dedwi, lived during the First Intermediate Period. At this time, the centralized royal government of the Old Kingdom had given way to local rulers, isolating provincial artists from the artistic traditions of the royal court. They developed local styles which, as on this stela, tended to be simple but lively.

THE 'Humpback Highway' is set to hit peak hour as more than 11,500 whales migrate past our coastline for the warmer waters off Queensland.
The first humpbacks to migrate are usually younger male and non-pregnant females, with pregnant females the last to head north after gorging themselves in Antarctic waters before making the 7000km journey.
To ensure the survival of their calves, mothers must produce 600 litres of extremely rich milk a day.
Excerpt from www.whitsundaytimes.com.au.
Whitsunday Island Day Trippers regularly report whale sightings' from June to mid September. Plan you holiday to meet the gentle giants of the sea.

Aurora Theater, Panama's first cinema, opened its doors in 1905 on Sixth and Fourth Streets in the San Felipe neighborhood. These first movie theaters were run by foreigners, since at that time no Panamanian was trained to work as a projectionist.
In the decade of the sixties, showings began in the former Bella Vista Theater and in the Lux. The Alhambra Cinema chain of movie theaters initiated operations in the late seventies and didn't close their doors until March 4, 2012.
During the start of the new millennium, chains like Cinemark and Cinépolis arrived in Panama, setting up new cinemas with wall-to-wall screens, extreme digital sound theaters, VIP lounges, and the latest in 3D movie theaters. The best of the seventh art can now be found showing in the major malls in Panama City.

I just made this post to show which design elements in Classic Windows should be improved in a future version of Windows.
For example Aero is still part of Windows 8 and not everything is flat and modern.
I listed here the things I noticed.
- Windows Media Player has still some Aero Elements and is not flat. Like the Mondern UI.
- The same applies to the Windows Photo Viewer
- and as well for Windows Fax and Scan (Ribbon support would be cool)
- also the OOBE and Windows Easy Transfer needs to be overhauled and Aero Elements should be removed there as well
- Windows Explorer Ribbon should get the Office 2013 Ribbon features.
- like: Auto Hide. Touch Mode, Same Close button (would fit then with Visual Studio as well) etc.
- Powershell Menu should be flat and white coloured, like the other Windows Applications
- Screensaver Window should fit into the Appearence Center (I made a sample below)
