For any kind of injunctive relief you need to come to court with "clean hands", that is you can't have acted in bad faith and then seek damages. It may be different if you could lawfully inhabit the property, but I'm guessing that there isn't a way for you to do that... | |

It just mentions the address I'm leasing, that power and water will be provided at the well and some other rent-y stuff (month to month, 30 day notice, security deposit, etc. Does that affect any notice periods, etc? | |

You can't expect a mortgage company to abide by an illegal contract. | |
