Answer 1

Favorite Answer

phone your local court house..

while you may have the "limitation"

you may have a jurisdiction problem as well if your landlord lives elsewhere...............

you can try for where the rental municipality that the rental was in . but some areas you have to go to where the owner lives in..not just the rental house..

so ask that question..

if you can file for where the house is located..
