Difference between revisions of "Georgia Ethics Code Does Not Apply To Fulton Judges"

The easiest way to get a tenant to simply stop paying his or her rent (and every landlord attorney with half a brain knows this) is to demand some absurd amount so as to induce the tenant not to pay any money at all. Imagine for example that you owe the present month's rent, for say $2,000, and your landlord demands $4,000 due within three (3) days for both the present month and the previous month's rent though you know for a fact you already paid the previous month's rent. The natural response by an unsuspecting tenant is to not pay a dime! Then the landlord will file with the court to have the tenant evicted and will inevitably win—though the money judgment will be less than requested by the landlord in the original demand. And thus, the staged eviction is completed in a manner that appears "legal enough" so as to avoid criminal prosecution.
