Persuant to Civil Code 1940.2, ( a ) it is unlawful for a landlord to do any of the following for the purpose of influencing a tenant to vacate a dwelling : ( 3 ) Use, or threaten to use, force, willful threats, or menacing conduct constituting a course of conduct that interferes with the tenant 's quiet enjoyment of the premises in violation of Section 1927 that would create an apprehension of harm in a reasonable person. Nothing in this paragraph requires a tenant to be actually or constructively evicted in order to obtain relief. Per 15 U.S.C. 1681i : 15 U.S.C, 1681s-2 : 15 U.S.C., 1681n, and 1681o these inaccuracies should be removed immediately, and I have a right to seek damages accordingly. also, Consumer debt collection in California is governed by the Rosenthal Fair Debt Collection Practices Act [ 2 ], and is intended to prohibit debt collectors from engaging in unfair or deceptive acts or practices in the collection of consumer debt.
