I don't think that will be necessary with the present the Harris 
government already gave landlords under he misnomer of the Tenant Protection 
Act.

You can find more on that in the article on the web site listed at the

There is no lawyer that I know of on their hotline, only a "paralegal" 
and that is with $96,000 in city funding for the phone line and one
