Landlord Changed Locks And Won't Give Me A Key
Preface: I have been let inside my apartment.
I live in ND. Recently I had a concerned family member call in a welfare check after which the police kicked in my door and took me away for a 72 hour psychiatric hold. Meanwhile, the landlord changed the deadbolt and will not give me a key, they let me in but insist that I have to wait an undetermined amount of days for new(different) lock to come in and be installed before I can get a new set of keys. This leaves my residence unsecured while I am away.. Do I have any legal recourse? Is the property management company liable for stolen items? My doorknob doesn't even have a latch anymore, so anyone walking by can just push it open.
