ALTERNATIVE EVIDENCE LINK | EXPERT GUIDE | FINANCIAL CLAIM LEDGER | OWNER DON KLYBERG
Video evidence demonstrating that the roach infestation remains active despite approximately bi-weekly extermination efforts since August 28, 2024. These exterminations were initiated following my call to animal control. Two written requests for relocation assistance were mailed to Don Klyberg's address, as listed on the Residential Lease Agreement, on November 1, 2024, and November 14, 2024, following a city inspection. To date, there has been no response to these notices. I reasonably expected to vacate the unit no later than November 30, 2024. Review Financial Claim
The continued infestation has rendered my furniture and personal property unfit to relocate due to potential contamination, further supporting my claim for $18,638.37 in damages. This includes costs for replacing essential belongings and securing alternative housing. The landlord’s failure to address the infestation and provide relocation assistance violates my rights under Minnesota law, specifically:
Minnesota Statute § 504B.161 – This law requires landlords to maintain rental properties in habitable condition, including addressing pest infestations. The landlord's failure to remedy the roach infestation violates this statute.
Minnesota Statute § 504B.385 – This law allows tenants to seek relief if a property is not fit for habitation, including requesting necessary repairs or relocation assistance. The landlord's inaction following city inspection and repeated notices constitutes a breach of this statute.
Minnesota Human Rights Act (Minn. Stat. § 363A) – As a Black, disabled, female tenant, the failure to address these habitability issues and respond to relocation assistance requests could constitute discriminatory neglect under the Minnesota Human Rights Act.
The landlord’s lack of response to reasonable relocation requests has caused undue stress, hindered my relocation prospects, and impacted my income. Immediate resolution is necessary to prevent further financial and personal harm.
