Impersonating an Officer: Hide Away Led Blue and Red Windshield Lightbar

My question involves criminal law for the state of: Washington state



A couple months ago I bought a for my windshield mounted by suction cup. I'm using it for pranks on YouTube.



My friend told me that just having the lights installed I'm my car will get me a huge ticket and possibly jail because it's considered impersonating a cop, even if I don't use the lights on public streets.



If a cop where to ever search my car and find it could I get in trouble? What is the law?



Will I get into trouble having the lightbar mounted, but not activated? Or is just having it in my possession a crime? What is the law?



I'm in Washington State

My question involves civil rights in the State of: Oregon



I live in a small town, however we are serviced by a fairly large Sheriff's department, however the shift for my particular area is covered by the same deputies depending on night/day shift. Last year I was divorced and the domestic circumstance leading up to it (civil disagreement/no charges filed or crime committed by either of us) basically led to a particular deputy behaving as though he was partial to my (now) ex-wife. At the time I did not file a complaint or think anything of it, as i had bigger battles to work out (such as child support, child custody, property division etc). Throughout the past year we reconciled, and then had a big fallout again.



My ex moved out and took kids on the 18th, then came back with friends to take my vehicle (registered and on loan to me), so I called to report why she was there. The same deputy from a year ago came out and said "this is a civil matter, but I'm staying here to make sure everything is OK. As far as I'm concerned everything here is community property and she can take whatever she wants". I told him we'd been divorced for a year and the car was not on part of the order. he said the order stated she had "equal rights" to the property. He proceeded to allow her to take not only my car, but clothes, he guarded me like I was the threat, while she went into my bedroom and took property that belonged to my job (my external hard drive i'm support to keep for purposes for disaster planning/off-site access), and because I had disarmed out of respect for him, even my sidearm. I told him I could show him that it was not right for her to be allowed to take my clothes, it wasn't right for her to take my car as it wasn't part of the order, and my gun was not registered to her. He refused to look at the order, or any document that I offered to show. For almost an hour he stood there while she packed the car filled with all sorts of stuff. When it came to the clothes and work hard drive I noticed missing ,he said "It's not my job to determine what belongs to who" and" I didn't see her take anything of yours".



It was clear to me at this point that he was partial to her, especially since he followed her when they drove down the road, and she later confirmed that he spoke bad about me, and felt that I was a "bullsh***er". He told me to my face that he had been on the force 20 years and "you don't think it's my first time having a go round with someone like you, a game player?".



So within the next 10 days I had filed a complaint for unprofessionalism, documenting everything that occurred. no one ever got back to me. i should note that I never gave him permission to enter my home that night. he told me to open the door because "she's just here to get clothes for her and the kids", so I did, and he entered and would not leave.



about 10 days after filing the complaint he shows up late at night banging on my door. i asked him why he was there and he wouldn't tell me. I thought maybe he's trying to retaliate or talk to me about the complaint i filed. I was honestly scared, so i called 911 (now i realize this was stupid as it wasn't an emergency but i panicked as he wouldn't tell me why he was there) other than "it's deputy xx i need to talk to you". 911 said i'd be arrested for abusing 911 service. he said he wouldn't talk to me through a door, so i opened it and he served me papers, saying "this is a restraining order, you have 15 minutes to get your stuff and get out". so she put on the RO that she lived at my address to have me kicked out of the property.



I had already filed an RO for battery, as I had 911 transcripts from the months prior, and the reason the sheriff's office took so long to serve he was because the gate was closed and they said "we can't open a gate and enter someone's property to serve them", but the deputy I feel is partial to her who served me had no problem parking outside of the gate, opening the gate, entering the property and knocking on my door. I expressed this to the other deputy and he said "well I can't speak for that deputy but it's normally against protocol".



I can't seem to find any ORS code or similar that will tell me more about this, but I am wondering if this deputy violated any law or my civil rights by serving me in the way that he did. My ex and I have since tried to reconcile, and she even confirmed that her new deputy friend seems to think I'm a dirt bag, lol, and met with her to talk bad about me and encourage her to leave me. I would be interested in getting professional perspective on this. An LEO friend told me that any deputy who has been on the force over 20 years and never made at least sergeant is typically because they are crooked and don't want to gain more pay and responsibility only to be placed under a bigger microscope. Not sure if this is true, but I have never had a run in or issue with any other officer in all these years, in fact most seem to be very objective. Thanks for any comment/advice on this matter. I should also note that i was told that the same deputy tried to serve her my RO, during his shift, but was unsuccessful. i find this especially ironic.

she no longer lives with her mother I presume because of Facebook pictures, she will turn 18 this month however she has had a child at the age of 17, which I just found out and is using marijuana continuously.

Breaking Up: How Can I Get My Personal Belongings Back from My Ex Who's Refusing to Give Them Back

My question involves a relationship in the state of: California



:wallbang:

On July 28th, I came home from work to find that my ex bf had changed the locks. I was floored. It was his house and we were ostensibly broken up and living in separate bedrooms. Yes, I know, very unhealthy. I had caught him yet again, online in his chat rooms, secret emails, secret profiles, etc. That was in January. He started counseling and S.A. meetings. January thru May it was a roller coaster of emotions and his behavior became hostile, bitter, and unbearable. Hence why at the beginning of June I told him I couldn't take it anymore and told him that I was going to move in with my friends by the end of August if not sooner.



The house was tense to say the least. We fought and I was constantly telling him he couldn't bully me by threatening me, crossing his arms over his chest and following me thru the house, snarling hateful things at me and basically trying to make my life miserable. As a side note, he had punched me back in 2012 and was arrested for DV. I didn't testify back then because I was afraid he's lose his job. Stupid me.



So back to the night of July 28th, 2014. When I arrived home from work, I called the police to help me get back into the house only to find my ex bf had filed a false TRO against me. I had ten minutes to get inside with the police standing by, and grab what few belongings I could in two bags. When I went in the house, I saw that my ex had already been rifling through my things and my laptop. Made me sick. :grumpy:



ALL my personal belongings are still in the house. Laptops, MAC computer, clothes, shoes, my daughters pictures, paperwork, etc etc. UGH!!!!!



We had the first TRO hearing and it got continued to September 29th. My ex got an attorney, I could not afford one. I brought up my concern over my belongings still being withheld from me at my ex's house. The judge said that at the conclusion of the hearing, he would either rule that I was to be "restrained" and he's order that I could get back into the house with a civil stand by....OR.....He'd find my ex did NOT sufficiently prove his case and I wouldn't be slapped with an erroneous Restraining Order. I expressed my concern over the fact that ALL my personal property is still at the house I shared with my ex and the judge stated I could go through my ex's attorney to arrange getting my belongings.



As I left the courthouse that day, my ex's hostile attorney, followed me out of the courthouse. He yelled at me stating that unlessI produced a key my ex thinks I have, then I won't ever get my belongings and he'd say that all my stuff was GONE. Wth?



I wrote a very polite email to my ex's attorney stating that I'd like a peaceful exchange of belongings like the judge had advised. His attorney has refused to reply.



I don't know what to do....



Will small claims really get my ex to give ALL my belongings back?



My ex sold his ex gf's boots, etc so I am extremely concerned he will do the same with my things. He has already taken my laptop and feels entirely justified to do so. His attorney implied that HE had all the power here and I had none in regards to property retrieval.




I looked into Writ of Possession. What I understand about a Writ, its used : showing that the property is wrongfully detained by the

defendant, of the manner in which the defendant came into possession

of the property, and, according to the best knowledge, information,

and belief of the plaintiff, of the reason for the detention.





Can I also file a police report adding the documentation of attempts through email, to arrange when and how I can get my belongings?



What about Replevin, also known as "claim and delivery," is an action to recover personal property that was wrongfully taken or detained -If so....how can I go about doing this?





Please help! I am growing more panicky as time goes on and I have radio silence from my ex's attorney. I want to do something before the TRO hearing on September 29th. :( I was also planning on submitting the emails I attempted to send to my ex's attorney to show the courts at my TRO hearing, how uncooperative my ex and his attorney truly are. I'm being wrongfully portrayed as a monster and its W R O N G

Warranties: How to Demand a Repair or Replacement of a Product

My question involves a consumer law issue in the State of: Rights of the consumer.



So my laptop stopped working on July 22 2014, because my son spilled a liquid over the keyboard. So I decided to call the company TOSHIBA, that sold me the laptop. So they said that they'd do what their best on reparing it, and they'd tell me later if it was gonna cost me money. So I called on July 23 2014 and they came to my house to take it to one of their afilliations, Microma. They apparently took over 11 days just to register the product there and start fixing it. Then, they told me that it would cost me around 130 USD to repair the keyboard, but there was an additional problem with the headphone jack. (I did call them before to tell them about it) and said the headphone jack issue could be repaired for free, and they needed to change the motherboard. So I agreed and after like 7 days they finished fixing it... But wait, when they delivered it to me, some problems:



-The laptop would shut down by itself after 10-20 mins of using it

-The keyboard didn't work AT ALL. You see, before I sent it, the keyboard would type a different letter or number instead of the one it was supposed to type. But this time it simply didn't respond.



Also, as a sidenote, my charger has been a little twisted in one of the tips. But this has been my fault, because I stepped on it once.



Atleast the headphone jack could work. So I decided, again, to call them so they could fix it. This time, they took 2 days to come here and get the laptop, and 1 day to register it. The weird part is that this time they said they could fix my keyboard and energy problem for free, but not the charger. They have been "fixing" it since August 12th 2014. They really haven't done anything. It says that they've been requesting parts of the laptop so they could fix it, but it's been way too much time. In total, it's been 36 days since I first called them. Now, there's a law that says I can demand a change of the contract, so they either replace my laptop with another one, or demand them to give me my money back, which was about 700-800$.



So what I wanted is to you guys tell me how do I approach them via email? How do I make them feel obligated to give me my money back or replace my laptop? Most of the companies nowadays ignore the consumers til they say they're gonna sue them or something. What arguments can be in my defense? What laws are they infringing?

Privacy Crimes: Recording a Meeting Without Consent

My question involves personal property located in the State of: WA



I didn't know what category to place this question in. 'ownership rights' seemed valid for lack of a perfect fit.



My question is around recording a meeting for notes purposes. Can I record a meeting strictly for my own benefit without having to ask or advise whomever I'm meeting with? Nobody would ever hear it or be privy to it. Again, it would only be for my own benefit in getting all the details when transcribing to notes later. If I didn't use this approach, I'd be forced to write fast and when writing that fast, I have a legibility issue later on so typing my notes as I would transcribe later would be preferable. TIA

Debt Collectors: Bank Calling My Cell Phone Repeatedly with Auto Dialer - Old Debt

My question involves collection proceedings in the State of: SC



I have been getting numerous automated collection calls per day on my cell phone from a bank where I had an old credit card account for my business (closed the business back in ~2009). The calls have been coming for the last several months, and come at LEAST 4-5 times per day and at LEAST 3-4 days per week. It's extremely annoying, disruptive to my day, and I need it to stop! Sometimes they use different numbers, but it's always an automated system that leaves a message, something similar to "...this is an automated message from xxxx, concerning a personal business matter....please call us at xxxx". Every once in a while, a live person calls, but it's mostly this crazy auto system. When I do pick up, it's usually silent, and then someone will pick up. I always hang up, and haven't talked to them at all. I never gave them my cell phone number, and never even had this number when I had the account with them 5-6 yrs ago. From what I've read, it looks like they shouldn't be able to keep calling me like this. I need to know what I can do. Can anyone advise? Thanks in advance.

........isn't all that too bad a concept! Consider the following:





Drafting Guys over 50

(subtitle) New Direction for the war on terrorists



I am over 50 and the Armed Forces thinks I'm too old to track down terrorists. You can't be older than 42 to join the military. They've got the whole thing assbackwards. Instead of sending 18-year olds off to fight, they ought to take us old guys. You shouldn't be able to join a military unit until you're at least 35.



For starters:



Researchers say 18-year-olds think about sex every 10 seconds. Old guys only think about sex a couple of times a day, leaving us more than 28,000 additional seconds per day to concentrate on the enemy.



Young guys haven't lived long enough to be cranky, and a cranky soldier is a dangerous soldier. "My back hurts! I can't sleep, I'm tired and hungry." We are impatient and maybe letting us kill some asshole that desperately deserves it will make us feel better and shut us up for a while.



An 18 -year-old doesn't even like to get up before 10 a.m. Old guys always get up early to pee so what the hell. Besides, like I said, "I'm tired and can't sleep and since I'm already up, I may as well be up killing some fanatical son-of-a-bitch.



If captured we couldn't spill the beans because we'd forget where we put them. In fact, name, rank, and serial number would be a real brainteaser.



Boot camp would be easier for old guys. We're used to getting screamed and yelled at, and we're used to soft food. We've also developed an appreciation for guns. We've been using them for years as an excuse to get out of the house, away from the screaming and yelling.



They could lighten up on the obstacle course, however. I've been in combat and didn't see a single 20-foot wall with rope hanging over the side, nor did I ever do any pushups after completing basic training. I can hear the Drill Sgt. in the "New army" now, "Get down and give me .. ER ... one."



Actually, the running part is kind of a waste of energy, too. I've never seen anyone outrun a bullet.



An 18-year-old has the whole world ahead of him. He's still learning to shave, to start up a conversation with a pretty girl. He still hasn't figured out that a baseball cap has a brim to shade his eyes, not the back of his head.



These are all great reasons to keep our kids at home to learn a little more about life before sending them off into harm's way.



Let us old guys track down those dirty rotten coward terrorists. The last thing an enemy would want to see right now is a couple of million pissed-off old farts with 'attitude' and automatic weapons who know that their best years are already behind them.



If nothing else, put us on border patrol....we will have it secured the first night!

Termination of Support: Drop Out into Internet School

My question involves child support in the State of: PA My question is referring to my daughter has failed school 3 times now. Now she is not attending high school, and now attending some school on the internet. She lives with my ex. Should child support be stopped and shouldn't my EX be held responsible for failing to get my daughter an education and allowing her to fail 3 times? My daughter is just now turning 18 and would be in the 10th grade if in school.

Establishing an Order: Establishing Custody and Visitation Schedules

My question involves a child custody case from the State of: New York



I would first like to thank anyone who takes time to answer this post, your advice is greatly appreciated. I would like to begin by stating that I love my child and want whats best for her regarding both her mother and my self. We had our child and broke up shortly after, an acknowledgement of paternity was signed by both parents at the time of birth. When we broke up we agreed that we would handle visitation as close to 50/50 as possible. It began well with mom agreeing to pick ups/drop offs while she was at work as we worked opposite shifts. We also tried to split the week as evenly as possible with mid week pick ups and mid weekend drop off. Soon after mom became uncooperative and began limiting my visits to only on my days off from work. Being limited in the amount of time that I could parent our daughter stung at first but was manageable since i would still be seeing my daughter weekly and able to spend my entire days off with her. I resisted the change at first and shortly after found myself in court for a child support hearing. For the record I have always supported my daughter and money was never an issue when it came to raising our child. After our support hearing mom, mom dismissed the custody and visitation hearings stating that we would be able to handle visitation and custody between us. I agreed to disagree on the issue with the hope that in time mom would see my negotiating in good faith and consider that in future discussions pertaining to visitation. I also asked mom to allow me to at least facetime/speak to our daughter between visits being that my time with her was being limited. At first it was no problem, eventually it became a hassle. This arrangement, to my disappointment, had become the new norm up until recently when mom stated she would no longer allow me weekly overnights because our child is beginning pre k. The only reasons mom gave was that she wants to ensure our daughter is on time to school and on a consistent routine. I expressed my willingness to accept the responsibility to ensure that our daughter would always be on time. I also expressed that as always I am transparent in my parenting and would try my best to stick to the routine so long as she would help me do so. Mom has recently been being uncooperative regarding many issues. She had expressed a willingness to relocate out of state to pursue a new career path and stated that her decision to do so had little to do with what I thought was best for our child and would not consult me until necessary if she decided to take such action. I fully support her and any decisions she makes to better herself but naturally was concerned about the relationship between my daughter and I. A week later she sent our daughter out of state for a few days and laughed at the notion that I would be upset that I felt I should have been advised, especially seeing as she was not with either parent. It would usually not be as big an issue but her recent pattern of behavior has me worried that one day I'll be completely cast aside. After the latest issue and her demand that I not take our daughter for weekly overnights I went to family court and scheduled a custody and visitation hearing requesting joint custody. I hope that at the very least that I can maintain the routine that I have had with my daughter and would love an even more equal visitation schedule if its feasible. My question is am I being realistic in what I hope to accomplish at these hearings?

Other Offenses: I Don't Think Anything Will Happen but What is the Worst That Could Happen

My question involves criminal law for the state of: Louisiana



I was on probation for a while and while I *think* I'm off now because of what the judge said, I'm just a little worried now about maybe future problems with this store I go to regularly.



I'm really not going to lie. I can easily be seen as suspicious. A lot of the times at that store I literally only use my tablet and then just buy something before I leave. Sometimes I even go without buying anything. I generally change my mind when I see how high their prices for what I want are and just leave. And as far as I know, every worker at the store knows I have done community service. Some I know have seen me while we picked up trash right by their store a few times and asked me about it.



I don't know if any actually know what I did or not but there's enough reasons for me to seem suspicious. I think I went to that store 3 times yesterday and only recall buying something once and I just generally only go to one part of the store and stay at it for a while.



All of the workers do seem to like me but I have to already seem suspicious. And with that in mind, something else also happened yesterday there.



The wifi doesn't always work there but when it does I do use it. It happened to yesterday after not working the day before. And while connected to it, I used the chat program Kik because I already had a few conversations going and needed to reply.



While I opened the chat and was about to reply, a girl sent me a random person's male private part. She does it a lot actually so I'm used to it. The problem is I'm worried the security camera could have caught it and I immediately replied saying I hope the security camera didn't see it.



That or it possibly getting saved on the server and being linked to my ip address.



So with something I think it could be seen and it's a tablet, not something small like a cellphone so I think it could be caught on the security camera and I really think there is enough reasons to review it and it again could look like I was doing something I wasn't.



I'm honestly a little scared to go back. I'll have to though and probably tomorrow but I haven't today and don't plan to.



I don't think anything will happen because if they look close they can see I've actually done nothing but just look suspicious. And they may not review the camera at all, I don't know.



So I really want to know what's the worst that could happen.

Speeding Tickets: Speeding Ticket Under VC 22350 in California

My question involves a traffic ticket from the state of: California



Hello Folks -



I have a question regarding a ticket that I received. I was cited for CVC 22350 for going 64mph in a 45mph zone on Montague Expy in Santa Clara County. I've read possibly every other posting on this website regarding 22350 violations and have done a great deal of work to move forward with a Trial By Declaration, but wanted to get your thoughts before moving forward.

1. On the day I was cited - the officer noted on the citation that weather, road, and traffic & Lighting conditions were as follows - LIGHT, CLEAR, DRY, MEDIUM


2. Obtained a copy of the Traffic Engineering Survey
   
   
   Survey was submitted and approved in 2009, but the stamp from the Registered Engineer has a date of 2010 - What does this mean? If I go off of the original date in 2009 then I could argue that the survey is invalid.
   
   


3. 85th percentile speed is stated to be 53mph with 75% of vehicles surveyed exceeding that speed.
   
   
   The reason for decreasing the speed limit to 45mph was due to accident rates, however, the most recent accident history data from 2005-2007 indicated a decrease in 101 accidents since the last study performed in 2004. Statewide Integrated Traffic Records System (SWITRS) reported 664 accidents (in 2005-2007) vs the 765 accidents (in 2004) with the majority of the accidents occurring while people attempted to merge onto Montague Expressway, not in free driving through Montague Expressway (as I was doing).
   
   


4. A disproportionate number of drivers are cited for speeding on this road due to the low speed limit set.


5. The county shows their calculations assuming that the accident rate is higher than the California average of 1.00 ACC/MVM, however, this was based on their assumption of maintaining the same accident ratio from 2004, but just with a higher ADT. Absolute accident figures are lower than that and have decreased year over year.

Now, with all that said, I have written up my defense stating that in regards to citation 22350 the conditions were ideal and I was not putting anyone or myself in danger. (yes I know this is subjective). I also brought up the bullet points above to show the flaws in the Traffic Survey that don't merit such a radical decrease in speed and is a speed trap due to the nature of the disproportionate number of citations as well as potentially being out of date.



When I submit this to the court, should I also include the Traffic and Engineering Survey? Yes, there was some good data that I could use in my defense, but it equally could be interpreted in favoring the state. Should I just submit my statement with the assumption that the state should provide one in order to refute my statements?



Also, anything else that I should be looking into?



Thanks in advance.

Wills: Keeping My Will Simple

Hi,



This may be a slightly odd question, but I am drawing up a will and wish to keep it simple. I am planning to bequeath everything to my siblings in my will, and then ask them privately (i.e. not in the will) to apportion a certain amount of what they receive to each of their offspring. I have complete confidence that they will carry out my private requests.



My question is this - does this seem a reasonable way of doing it?



Thanks, Daniel

Nuisance: Neighbours' Aviary is Affecting My Mental Health

Hi,



A couple of months ago one of the neigbours (the wife) deemed it a good idea to bring home some budgies and put the birds in a previously empty aviary, without asking us if we would mind having these extremely noisy birds next to our terrace.

Since then I have been unable to enjoy our beautiful garden or the view since it has been a non-stop barrage of chirping, squeals and squawks . These birds never, and I mean NEVER seem to shut up.



Long story short: her husband, with whom I have a good relationship promised to put up a noise barrier, (read: flimsy plastic walls) in the aviary, after several reminders he finally put them up. This has helped somewhat but the noise is still there and it has now started to affect my mental health.

The sound is not noticeable with the windows and doors closed but I want to have full enjoyment of my garden.

I have been taking antidepressants (Effexor) for the last 5 years and was just in the process of weaning them off. I went to my psychiatrist several times due to stress caused by the bird noises, he proposed doubling the dose but I want to live medication-free.



Long story short: I am suffering mentally and the enjoyment of my garden has been restricted completely by this matter. Since the wife is not open to conversation or even says hello, I have tried to engage with the husband and set up a meeting to address this issue, asking for removal of the birds.



Since I am not getting any feedback, I am now considering legal action and I am wondering if the inclusion of a medical certificate by my psychiatrist can work in my favour? My fear is that the case can be dismissed should a judge decide my trouble is caused by a pre-existing condition, although this was completely unrelated to the reason why I started to take medication in the fist place.

Thanks for any useful input, I am at my wits end.

not have a mental illness. There are stories about me online calling me mentally ill and mentally deranged. Do I have a case for slander?

Custody and Visitation Issues: Protection Order and Visitation

My question involves a child custody case from the State of: ohio.

on June 29 I left my marital residence with my three children due to the fact that my has been assaulted me in front of the children and the police couldn't do anything because he didn't leave any marks. I left to another county to stay with family when my husband began stocking me so I filed for a protection order. There were also some issues like father daughter pornography that I found on his computer that involved role-playing people and also accusations that he had molested a four-year-old when he was younger that I just had found out. The court from the other county granted my protection order or at least a temporary one. My husband filed for divorce and on the papers part of it said that he had another residence so I came back to the home he came back that night and actually broke the protection order but again was not arrested because it had not been entered into the system yet that was August 1. His attorney filed with Highland County courts to get the home so we went in for a temporary hearing and or emergency hearing and the courts said that I have two weeks to be out of the home with my children and allow him unsupervised visitation or drop my protection order from the other county and live in the home with him and supervise everything. I'm wondering if the county were my map marital residence is if the magistrate from there can force these orders on me although I have a protection order with the children listed on the protection order. Can the magistrate here overrule or ignore the other magistrates decision for the protection order is what I am wondering. If I move out and allow unsupervised visitation then I am breaking the protection order. If I stay and drop my protection order and live in the home with him I run the risk of allegations being made against me as well as harm coming to my children. The magistrate here told me that she has a sour taste in her mouth from me because I got a protection order and another county however I was residing there at that time and that's why I went there. It seems to me that she's making unfair and unsafe decisions with myself and my children simply because she's not happy I got a protection order and another county what can I do, also I am nursing my six-month-old son exclusively and now they said if I want to continue nursing that they guess I'll just have to breast pump which I do not want to do because that causes bottle to nipple confusion since they are allowing overnight weekend long visits with my 6 month our son!

Resignation: Can I File a Grievance on a Co-Worker After I Have Resigned

My question involves labor and employment law for the state of: Virginia



I resigned from a position without providing two weeks notice due to a hostile work environment with my immediate supervisor. As a result, I am unable to collect my accrued vacation/sick/personal time. I informed my HR rep of the reasons I resigned, but she stated it would only be used for record purposes. Am I able to file an official grievance against my immediate supervisor even though I am no longer an employee? I worked in the state of Virginia, but my company is based out of New Jersey (not sure if that matters).



Thanks for any info.

Moving Out: Move Out Mid Month - Gave Proper Notice

My question involves landlord-tenant law in the State of: Massachusetts.



I am currently a tenant at will. I have never signed a lease or any type of document with my landlord.



I have found a new apartment and the latest available date that I can have my lease start is October 15th. I provided my current landlord with my written notice to vacate on August 28th, and had listed October 18th as my official move out date (which gives me a few days to move into my new apartment and clean my current apartment before handing back the keys). This means I provided 51 days notice. I assumed I would be responsible for September and 18 days of October. He then informed me that I would be responsible for the full month of October because I cannot simply move out and stop being rent responsible mid month. Is this true?



Again, I did not sign anything at any time with this landlord, and from what I see online the law in MA says nothing about not being able to move out mid month if proper notice was provided. However I am not a lawyer so I'm not sure what the real deal is. Help!



Here is what I found online:



"A Tenant-at-Will is one who occupies a rented premises without a lease but pays rent periodically (typically monthly). The agreement for the Tenancy-at-Will may be either written or verbal. Either the landlord or tenant may terminate this arrangement by giving written notice 30 days or one full rental period in advance, whichever is longer. No reason is required to terminate. If rent is paid the first of each month, notice should be given prior to the first day of the month. However, either the landlord or the tenant may be able to give notice as late as the first day of the month itself. For extra protection send the notice both by certified mail, return receipt-requested, and by regular mail."
