OT: Chase Apartments management holding bicycles hostage

[CNS]

Probably show her in the contract where it says you can't store anything outside your apartment and that it may be confiscated. Would have been nice if they gave her a warning.

They're running a freaking bike selling scam.  You think they give a damn about contracts?

Link?  I have been thinking of getting a new bike.

short answer...call rcpd.  that is theft.

Nope. This is resolved through civil court, and RCPD will tell you the same thing.

LOL, they stole my car!  Not my problem, take it to civil court loser.

Short answer: no

Depends on who took your car. If it's someone you let borrow the car sometimes, and they take it on a roadtrip without your permission are you going to report it stolen?

You can if you're a douche.

No you can't, because it's a civil issue, or deprivation of property offense at the very most. Didn't mean to derail your bike reclamation efforts Trim, this was a bit tangential. I'm pulling for you guys to stick it to 'em...but not in that way...unless you're into that

lol

She gets it back today after the meeting.

Sounds exactly like grade school.  

just spray paint some golden wieners on their signs so it basically says chase wieners and gtfo once she has her bike back. if they treat you like a child, act like one.

realistically, ask them what they do with the repo'd bikes. Villa Fay takes bikes too (pretty sure its just the ones they find after people move out of their properties) and gives em away if you ask... her husband even offered to help take a nicer tire from one and put it on another.

I'm not sure what season of Law & Order you are watching, but taking someone's property without consent is not a civil matter.  It is theft.    If someone you loan your car to does not return it upon demand, you can certainly call the police and report it as theft, and they will investigate it as such.     The OP's situation is also theft.    Despite what they may have written into a lease, they cannot seize your property and not return it.    They may confiscate it and hold it until you meet with them, but once you ask for it's return, they must return it.

At worst it is criminal deprivation of property, but it escalates to theft the moment you request the return of your property and they do not comply.

It's unlikely I'll ever have the opportunity to ask them about this.

Too far along into the revenge plans?

Turns out my wife reads the board, or at least somebody sent her a link to the QT/Lawrence thread, and she then saw this.  No more side pieces for ol' Trim.

I left my old bike chained up at an apartment complex I moved out of for over a year. I eventually came back and picked it up with no problems. Chase is dick central.
