    Default How Can You Be Evicted if You've Already Moved Out

    My question involves an eviction in the state of: Nevada. I live in Las Vegas and have been in my current apartment for 8 years. I had a water problem that soaked my rug so I rented a room at a daily/weekly/monthly manor for 4 weeks. On 11/12/12, seven days before I moved back to my apartment I paid a weeks rent and told the clerk 11/17/12 would be my last day. My receipt says departure date: 11/17/12. Five weeks later they tell me I was evicted and someone had paid rent for my room a couple times but they know it wasn't me. I checked in with my home address and cell phone number but no ever tried to contact me. They have security and maids and no one even knocked at the door, I guess. All I know is I have an eviction on my record and I owe them $640.00. I have no idea what to do but if this goes to collections and on my credit report it will ruin my credit and I've been out of work over a year. Thanks for any thoughts in advanced.

    When you sent them a copy of the receipt, what happened?

    Hello, L.R Missy, thanks for your reply. I did send them a copy of my receipt with a letter explaining my side and my home apartment receipts for rent paid the month before, the month I was there and the this month along with my managers phone number to verify I've been here 8 years and never late with the rent. I asked how could you accept rent for my room but not from me and you don't know who. (ans: anyone can pay rent for anyone) Why didn't anyone try to contact me by phone or mail? (no ans) How did you know that I wasn't dead in the room and the phantom rent payers were my killers? (no ans). Why didn't security or maids knock on the door if they thought I was in there? (no ans). So far I have had friendly conversations with a manager but he just keeps saying I'm sorry, would you like to make payments on the $640.00.

    You say the manor claims they evicted you. Were you served papers? Was an eviction filed in your local court? If no, you don't have an eviction on your record.

    If the manager of the manor keeps insisting that you pay more, I would suggest you take your receipts to a local attorney.

    I was never served or have seen any papers and the manager was off today. I've checked with our local court and I have a legal eviction on my record. I guess I will have to look for an attorney. Thanks for your advice.

    When you looked at the court records, they would have reflected where, when and how you were supposedly served. What were they claiming?

    She was talking about the receipt you received upon check out, when you turned in the key, which proves you left.
