I entrusted my dog to a groomer who claimed the dog had a seizure and died, but later told a neighbor the dog got entangled in a tether and choked to death.

I paid rent on time for February and March, but due to fraudulent activity in my bank account in early March, the payments were reversed and I was charged NSF and late fees. I provided the apartment complex with a police report and bank statements showing the payments cleared, but they still hold me responsible for the fees. I offered to pay April's rent while resolving the issue with the bank, but they demanded all or nothing, causing additional late fees. I've lived here for almost 3 years without issues, but now I'm facing eviction notices despite showing proof of cleared payments. What can I do to resolve this situation?

Can I appeal only the standing issue if the judge ruled on it during the hearing? If I claimed standing based on being the personal representative of an estate, should that have resulted in a judgment of standing in a petition for judicial review?
