I live in California. On the 3rd I went to pay my rent, the manager refused it stating "I'm evicting you" I have this on tape & a witness to. There is no basis for an eviction other than she is being sued in small claims for harassment. Now five days later, I receive a 3 day notice to pay rent or quit. There was no eviction papers served, the only other thing was I was served a 14 day termination notice after living here for over a year that I didn't abide by. I see this as a ploy on her part but can she refuse my rent and then demand it?
