Re: Is this eviction legal?

Yes you can be evicted for such incident, it's her property
and she wants a peaceful enviroment for her grandaughter
(and other tenants if there are any others there)

The procedure to do for your Landlady was to give you a 30
days notice (because you need to find another place) and
than if the 30 days passes and you don't move, she has to
give you a 5 day notice, and if you have not move by that
time, (whatever the excuse you give) than she has to file a
Summons and Complaint and take you to court and after she
wins, she has to pay the Sheriff to come and give you 2
hours to move your stuff out

Please remember that you will be charged for Court papers,
her time, Sheriff's fees and so much more, so you are going
to end up with a big bill and an eviction on your record
which I am sure you don't really want

How old is your child?

Becareful who you hire to watch him/her, it sounds to me
that this babysitter is not very trustworthy to let such
incident happen as to disturb the peace and if things went
as far as to trow a speaker that hitted a car, it could also
injure anybody and that includes your child

I hope you can convince the Landlady to let you stay without
any further problems on your part, you don't really want an
eviction on your record
