I am a federal contractor. I was told to stop work when the government shut down.
On October 23, Pegasus Residential said they weren’t renewing my lease. We must move by mid-December. Today, they sent a 3 Day Notice to Vacate.
Our ACA insurance is rising from $368/mo to $1496 in January.

Crowned Prince Nedward adapted well to condo life when we moved to Florida. He’d traverse a whole block, and hang out on neighbors’ balconies when he escaped.

All, I need $3250 to give to the court by Tuesday if we want to stay until December 23. Otherwise, I can file an answer and hope the judge delays. But if not, we’ll have 3 days to get our things out and move.

So Trump and Bill Clinton were sexually involved? And there is video and there are photos? In Putin's possession?

Friends,
Pegasus Residential told me this morning that they are moving ahead with the eviction despite the government likely reopening this week, which make it nearly impossible to rent a new place.
