You can even ask someone else in the "main office" for contact information for their supervisor, or do your best with Google about the property to see if you can turn up more contact #s.

If you just plugged into an accessible outlet, you want to make sure you side of the story is told.

Their paper honestly sounds like you hacked and spliced into their electric feed, spliced in your own outlet...damaged property, etc.

 

Well they were kind enough to include a picture of the outlet I was using in my notice.

If this is something they are saying I wired in then I should probably look into getting a job as an electrical contractor. Supposedly there's good money in that.
While I'm sure I would be capable of doing so that just isn't the case. The effort in installing this would far exceed the benefit. I could have just plugged the cord into the outlet above my car and gone about my everyday business.
I guess this is what I get for taking the easy way out. The car has been on jack stands for weeks and I just didn't want to climb on top of it. Which in the end I did anyway.
If I really am being accused of wiring in an outlet then fine but the burden of proof lays on them for that one because all that I'm guilty of is plugging in an extension cord and using up some power. Which is a very clear part of this. In my POV and most others so far this is not a good enough reason to be evicted.
Here's the room in which I used the outlet.

My extension cord ran out of my garage on the other side of this closet across the curb over the rocks and under the opening in the door. Completely visible. There is clearly no intent to "steal".
The reason I said there was no alarm on that door was because I had it plugged in since like 7:30 that morning. By the statement it was 11:30 when the Maintenance Supervisor was driving by and noticed it. In the REAL conversation we had he claimed to have had an alarm and he didn't have to say anything.
In the statement his wording is completely changed, and my response which is accurate doesn't really match. Especially for me, because I KNOW I would have jumped all over him for accusing me of breaking in & stealing. I'm not a thief and I generally don't run around breaking into places. I react very verbally aggressive to people that accuse me like that. My response has ZERO aggression.
So here's my question was he driving by or did he get an alarm?? Just look at the conversation as they typed it up, it doesn't fit.
Just that simple changing of wording makes this guy the ****** liar!!!
Talking about all this is just making my blood boil, so I'm done for now before I chuck my ****** computer across my place an thru a wall.

 

Ok, not saying you are wrong but when I did internet wiring work. A lot of those Riser room doors have trigger alarms. It's just a light that goes off in the maintenance office on a panel.

That looks like a key card reader on the door above the door knob? I assume you didn't have access?

I'd say they have a good case against you, it's pretty obvious that door and room isn't a common area where a tenant should have access.

 

While your points are valid and I don't disagree at this point that I shouldn't have been in there. It's blown out of proportion.

That box isn't connected to, wired to, locking or triggering ANYTHING. I examined it very closely before opening the door as I was wondering if it would set anything off myself.

 

That is a lock box with a key in it for the handle below it on the door.
It is so the Fire Dept can get to the risers in case of a fire.

I do not think the door should of been left unlocked in the first place.
Probably the fault of maintenance that it was left unlocked.

 

I didn't even know what that was for. I shall look further into that tip.
Perhaps why they accuse me of breaking into it.....

 

Which would also explain why he changed his statement on the notice. Because they left it unlocked and in order to not look foolish is now accusing me of breaking in.

 

Just went outside and checked. My Fire Riser room is locked.

 

There isnt any "NO ADMITTANCE" or "NO TRESPASSING" signs posted anywhere visible near that door.

Nothing says you couldn't go in there, and its obvious the only way you could get it was if it was unlocked.

I would strongly suggest talking to the highest person up the chain you can.

Im sure the maintenance guy will get in trouble for leaving the thing unlocked, and is just trying to cover his own a** here.

 

Now the burden of proof is on you to pshow you didn't break in. How you will get one of their guys (most likely the guy who got in the altercation with you) to admit they were wrong and left it open just doesn't seem like it will happen. The way it looks to me, since he lied, he knows you are screwed, unless you had some kind of proof it was left open, or you can talk the superviser into some common sense that you didn't ever break in, and it would be painfully obvious on the door...
