The following incidents of harassment have occurred: Prior complaints I have made regarding this conduct: Please be advised that tenant harassment is prohibited by law. If this conduct continues, I will file a formal complaint with the local housing authority, report the incidents to the appropriate regulatory agency, and seek all available legal remedies, including damages. I am sending a copy of this letter to the local housing authority for their records. This letter serves as formal notice. Any further harassment will be documented and may be used as evidence in legal proceedings. Sincerely,
