er panel at all times . This may either be achieved by giving someone a
key who could let your tenant into your apartment or if someone manages
the building for you , you may give him a key.

tion is advisable , failure to do so may result in court action .

Dear Mr. Giardi :
On February 12 , 1989 , about 3 : 30 p.m. I put on my living lamp.
When I turned on the lamp it flicker and blew out 70% of the
lights in my apartment .
About 5 p.m. I started calling my landlady after I had looked
out the kitchen window and saw my landladys car parked in the
yard. Almost every hour on the hour I had called her answering
machine and left messages telling her when my lights went out
and that I had to get to the circuit breakers to turn the lights
back on. I also called Albert Eisen, her father, and he wasn ' t
home either.
About 9 : 05 p.m. the landladys boyfriend came home. From what
I had gather Ed played the answering machine and at 9 : 10 p.m.
my lights cameback on--I was with out power for over 5 1 /2 hrs .
The circuit breakers are in the landladys apartment, in her
bedroom/living room and she won ' t give me a key to get into
her apartment to turn them back on. At least 6-8 times a year
I blow a fuse and need to get into her apartment to turn the
circuit breakers back on.
Going back in time of 1988 : I had my Christmas tree hooked
up and a bulb blew which blew the rest of the house out and
I called the landlady. The other time was over the fall and
I had to wait at least 5hrs for someone to come home to turn
them back on. The other time is when Michele and Ed went away
on , their boat and my lights went out again, I had to wait close
to 12 hrs . The jest of this happens to me all the time.
My landlady' s name is : Michele Eisen
21 Symonds Street
Phone # : (Basement Apt. )
741 -3421 Salem, MA 01970
Sincerely yours,
Mrs . Alice McDevitt
PS : I have a handicap child and I need the lights on all the
time-I truly wish I could get my landlady to understand this .
