here is a sticky situation. My father rents a home from my ex husband for 350 a month when the terminal illness of my spouse threw me in the financhal poor house and i lost my housing my dad allowed us to move in with him. mind you my ex and i have a child together that lives in the home here with me and my dad . (dead beat ex doesnt pay child support) when he learned we were here he is now attempting to increase my dads rent 150 a month. there was no offical lease written now all of a sudden he hands my dad a lease sayin 500 a month and there was no security deposit made. when in all acutality my dad paid for the decks to be installed and bought the lumber for the decks to the tune of 4800 dollars. when i heard him yelling at my father i stepped in the middle of it and the pip squeak tucked tail and ran as usual. he couldnt discuss it rational or like an adult. he screamed some obscenities and left. I simply asked what law entitled him to the authority to raise his voice and curse at my father with my children with in ear shot. So legally does my father have to pay this ammount? or do we have grounds to take him to court and injure his so called reputation as a slum lord? mind you housing in the past two years has increased to the four digit figures in this area
