Don't Ask Don"t Tell

The whole world need not know your business. Some things are better left unsaid.

"Corporate" says you can't keep a firearm; the Supreme Court says tht you can. DUH. :banghead:

Nope, that's not what the Supreme Court said. The Supreme Court said (in effect and grossly simplified) that the federal government can't prevent you from keeping a firearm (subject, perhaps to some limitations to be named later). The Supreme Court did not say, and can not say, that under the Constitution a private party can not by contract prevent you from keeping a firearm. These are very different things.
 
As an apartment owner and landlord I believe that the caluse is unenforceable. It is a violation of teh tenants rights on both a State and National level.

And exactly what is that stupid statement supposed to mean?

And as a lawyer with more than 30 years experience, it's my professional opinion that such a clause is in fact enforceable, unless a state statute expressly prohibits such a clause. It appears that only a few states have such a statute, and Maryland isn't such a state.
 
Glad it worked out. Kudos to the manager. Just keep a low profile, and put an entry lock on a closet that doesn't house the electrical panel. The maintenance man has no reason to go there. So you own jewelery and want to lock it up or I have a 9,000.00 bass guitar that I lock up in it. It is none of their business, and they are required to leave a note if they enter to fix some thing. Long live the 2 nd!

I'm a landlord and if anything needs to be repaired I have to give 24 hrs notice before I enter the apartment to make repairs or hire someone to do them. The exception is in case of an emergency,broken pipes,leaks etc. you might be able to change the locks but if an emergency ensues you might be liable if maintainence can't get in.
