Dave’s not here, man.
Again, check the lease. In any place that I let, any illegal activity is reason for eviction. And recreational pot use in NY is still illegal. As an owner, I’d have the property manager enforce the lease in a NY minute. That smell and the residue are hell to get out, and the longer they’re in there, the harder and more expensive it gets. Cigarette smoke too, but that’s harder to evict. Better sooner than later, as winter evictions in NY are near-impossible regardless the reason.
I have to wonder what leads the OP to the conclusion that Stoner Guy is dealing? Shoot, he may not even be buying from a dealer (nice houseplants, anyone?). As others have posted, use within guidelines isn’t a criminal offense.
That’s not gonna work. There not going to go through the hassle of filing an eviction in court over a over some dude smoking pot. If they did that, they’d lose 40% of their tenants.
You guys are gonna look stupid when the DEA Tactical Pants team breaks down the offenders door and visits a righteous ass-kicking on this odious felon.
There HAS to be something that can be done about that.
Botanists, start your engines!
'Toon, you might wish to start with building management/owners.
Have you reported The Doobie Brothers to the FBI?
OP, just for the record, is your ire raised primarily because of the violation or primarily because he’s being a bad neighbor?
In case I’ve missed something, considering the third paragraph of the OP, how do we know (s)he HASN’T talked to the neighbor about this?
No but they aren’t committing [del]terrorism[/del] [del]a felony[/del] [del]a crime[/del] a parking-ticket-level violation in his vicinity, or you could bet your sweet ass DHS would already be getting a call about those hooligans too.
Dude, while Jerry Garcia, aka Captain Trips, did use marijuana, he was not a constant pot head and could in fact be the most intelligent conversationalist in just about any company. He was a junkie, having a penchant for heroin, which, along with donuts, contributed to his death at age 53, which is 371 in Grateful Dead years.
FWIW, I moved into (what I consider) a luxury apartment complex. I used to smoke weed, but the lease here explicitly prohibits it (even though it could technically be construed as legal otherwise).
I took a few tokes here under the “go in the bathroom, turn on the fan” system. But I felt guilty. I looked around at where I am, who I am living with, what I make at the job where I could potentially get in trouble… and I quit. I don’t smoke weed here, it is against the rules. I haven’t had a single toke in months, here or elsewhere. I can look my neighbors in the eye. I gave it up.
Nobody confronted me. That said, I recommend the OP communicate with the guy in person or via note before going to the authorities. Pot doesn’t really matter much- there is probably something the guy can do to keep the smell out of Cartooniverse’s place if he just asks nicely.
Doesn’t mention that he mentioned his issue, just that he tried having a convo, and it didn’t last more than 45 sec.
No, he’s the kind of neighbor that should be convinced to start smoking pot.
Hmmm, if the neighbor smoked a bit less, and gave it to him instead, everybody would be better off. WIN/WIN! 
The latter. He keeps playing 4’33" at full volume in the middle of the night, over and over.
Cartooniverse, many of your OP’s in recent months have been somewhat strident and shit, and some might construe your mood and temper as being somewhat on edge, so to speak.
May I suggest you have a smoke? Y’know, chill out and shit? Maybe stop taking everything so fucking seriously? I mean, seriously!
kambuckta…who doesn’t even smoke dope, but knows a psycho when she reads one!
I don’t get why you don’t just get an air filter. Sure you “shouldn’t have to,” but it’s a rough world out there.
Oh, the Doobie Brothers are the worst! Have you ever seen Patrick Simmons? A hippie if ever I saw one.
Did you *really *wonder if most recreational smokers lock themselves in the bathroom with a fan when smoking or did you just want to talk about yourself?
Call your local Blockleiter.
