My question involves an eviction in the state of: California

My heater broke around October of 2007...I had a certified heater repairman come to the house; verify the problem, he called the landlord and explained it HAD TO BE REPLACED, told the landlord he could do the job within 3 days, and even signed a statement to the fact which was sent to the landlord.

I told the landlord if he bought the heater; I would install it (I am a carpenter) so he could catch a break on install cost...he said that would be great! To this day...he has NOT done a thing about even so much as buying a new one or even GIVING ME A SPACE HEATER!!!

I live at Lake Tahoe...it has been extremely cold since October (thank god summer is around the corner)!!!

Now the landlord is trying to evict me!! He gave a notice with absolutely NO REASON for eviction!! Now, I am NOT in a month-to-month lease!! I signed a BRAND NEW YEAR LEASE about 3 months ago!! How can he evict me with NO REASON while I am in a year lease?

Is it a coincidence that he just put the apartment up on the market for sale at the same time he sent the eviction notice? I have NOWHERE to move to, money is extremely scarce, work is practically impossible to find, and I am freezing my behind off!!!

What do I DO????? By the way...I HAVE been paying full rent this ENTIRE time the heater is completely out of work!!
