I am going through a landlord/tenant (LL/T) case. I am the
tenant and have only been renting from said LL for 6
months. In this time, we have repeatedly been lied too. I
started taping conversations when I could tell things were
about to get ugly - eviction. So here I am with a court
date next week and I find out that it is illegal in 13 of
our 50 states to; "Of the 50 states, 37, as well as the
District of Columbia, allow you to record a conversation to
which you are a party without informing the other parties
you are doing so. Federal wiretap statutes also permit one-
party-consent recording of telephone conversations in most
circumstances. 1 Thirteen states forbid the recording of
private conversations without the consent of all parties.
Those states are California, Delaware, Florida, Illinois,
Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Montana, Nevada, New
Hampshire, Oregon, Pennsylvania and Washington." Does any
one know of any type of loophole? These recordings prove
my case; do I have an angle I can work to get these tapes
in evidence?
Thank you for your assistance/direction,
David
