Re: 22 Sinclair Rd. Unit #1 Mechanicsburg, PA
Dear Ms. KaK
The present lease regarding your residence known and numbered as 22 Sinclair Road Unit #1,
Mechanicsburg PA, renewed for a term of 12 months on or about the 15t day of July 2008. The term ended on
or about June 30, 2009.
I understand that you moved out of this property on or about September/Pt, 2008. The power was
taken out of your name on or about September 6th, 2008. Thus, you broke the contract and departed prior to
the end of the present term.
According to the terms and conditions of your lease you forfeit your security deposit as liquidated
damages on account of this breach.
I have not received rent for September 2008.
The rent due for September 2008 is.$730.00.
Neat, you returned my property in a horrible, filthy condition. The cat odor was unbearable.
The cat urinated and destroyed carpets and caused us odor eradication problems throughout the entire
unit. The cat urinated in the air conditioning intake vent in front of the rear door. We then discovered an actual
pool of cat urine in the duct work underneath; the duct work had to be replaced since it was not possible to
remove the urine damage and odor from that. The damages caused by the cat were certainly very extensive.
The amounts due to Attorney James M. Bach for damages to this unit are as follows:
1. General cleanup of unit and cleaning supplies....... .................................$250.00
2. Removal of duct work from underneath unit and repurchase and replace
same ....................................... .....................................$120.00
3. Materials and labor regarding replacement, removal, and haul away of cat urine soaked
carpeting in living room. Also, labor of installation of new flooring in living
room .................................................................................... $1,569.62
TOTAL DAMAGES.... ..................................................................$1,939.62
TOTAL DUE INCLUDING SEPTEMBER 2008 RENT($730.00) ................$2,669.62
. / 1 E ?" C;? %I
correct this problem by removing the animal from the property upon the beginning of his spraying tactics.
Nevertheless, kindly remit to me at your earliest attention the damages caused by your leaving the
property in a filthy condition and your cat urinating throughout the entire unit thus destroying the flooring and
other items.
Lastly, upon your moving into that property it was impeccable and spotlessly clean.
End: Copy of lease

Re: 22 Sinclair Rd, Unit #1 Mechanicsburg, :PA
Dear Ms. Kahlil,
The present lease regarding your residence known and numbered as 22 Sinclair Road Unit #l,
Mechanicsburg PA, renewed for a term of 12 months on or about the 15t day of July 2008. The term ended on
or about June 30, 2009.
I understand that you moved out of this property on or about September/Vt. 2008. The power was
taken out of your name on or about September 6th, 2008. Thus, you broke the contract and departed prior to
the end of the present term.
.According to the terms and conditions of your lease you forfeit your security deposit as liquidated
damages on account of this breach.
I have not received rent for September 2008.
The rent due for September 2008 is.$730.00.
Next, you returned my property in a horrible, filthy condition. The cat odor was unbearable.
The cat urinated and destroyed carpets and caused us odor eradication problems throughout the entire
unit. The cat urinated in the air,conditioning intake vent in front of the rear door. We then discovered an actual
pool of cat urine in the duct work underneath; the duct work had to be replaced since it was not possible to
remove the urine damage and odor from that. The damages caused by the cat were certainly very extensive.
The amounts due to Attorney James M. Bach for damages to this unit are as follows:
:.
........... $250.00
1. General cleanup of unit and cleaning supplies ........... .............
2. Removal of duct work from underneath unit and repurchase and replace
same ........................................ ....................... . ...................$120.00
3. Materials and labor regarding replacement, removal, and haul away of cat urine soaked
carpeting in living room.. Also, labor of installation of new flooring in living
room ................................................................................... $1,569.62
TOTAL DAMAGES .........................................................................$1,939.62
TOTAL DUE INCLUDING SEPTEMBER 2008 RENT($730.00) ................$2,669.62

correct tins problem by removing the animal trom the property upon the oeglnn ng or Pis spraying racucs.
Nevertheless, kindly remit to me at your earliest attention the damages caused by your leaving the
property in a filthy condition and your cat urinating throughout the entire unit thus destroying the flooring and
other items.
Lastly, upon your moving into that property it was impeccable and spotlessly clean.
