GOP – do not do this. This is brazenly unlawful. The tenant will sue you and obtain an injunction order restraining you from forcibly dispossessing them.GNot paying dues is not a crime. It is a civil breach of contract. As a landlord, you cannot “do whatever you want”. How and why do people who have absolutely no knowledge of the law, feel qualified to confidently give legal advice?GThis is terrible advice. Cannot believe this is being masqueraded as “legal advice”. From a lawyer – you cannot forcibly take possession back from a tenant – paying or otherwise. You would have to issue the tenant an eviction notice, wait 15 days, and then go to court for eviction.GThis is terrible advice. Do not file a PIL.
As others have said, you can consider filing a consumer complaint or a civil suit for recovery of money (if you are able to make out that you have faced any loss).
GYou should engage a lawyer. Defending a case personally is going to be much more time consuming than you think, especially since you presumably do not have much knowledge of court procedures. Also, if you do not have a lawyer, you would have to appear in court multiple times, possibly over several years. It is not that you can appear once and be done with it.As for whether you are obliged to reply to legal notices from your relatives, the answer is that there is no consequence, per se, in law. It is simply a notice from your opponent. If you do not reply, they will likely proceed to file a case in court. You will eventually have to file a reply in court, though.
