SF Weekly has a funny piece on some of the more extreme landlord-tenant disputes out there. This week, a landlord was so pissed off, he "wielded a large kitchen knife at the tenant and threatened to kill the tenant."
Illegal eviction? Yes, as well as constructive eviction, violation of the warranty of quiet enjoyment, illegal entry, assault and battery, and probably retaliation. Don't know what the tenant did, but in any case, this was not a good choice.
S.F. Tenants Union head Ted Gullickson also reports, among other stories:
A few weeks ago, a landlord set up a Webcam in a tenant's apartment. And when the tenant turned it off, the landlord came in the apartment and threatened the tenant physically.
