As a matter of fact, you do. According to Article 258, section 12, paragraph 33 of the Tenant Rights Act, if a tenant is evicted and cannot collect their things due to extenuating circumstances (which these, as I'm sure you can understand, are,) then it becomes the duty of the landlord to care for the personal belongings of the tenant until such items can be collected. At this point, the tenant shall assess the items and ensure that they are in the same condition as when the tenant last saw them, as the landlord, in evicting them during a time of clear duress, becomes responsible for those items, and is liable for up to twice the worth of said items if they are not properly returned to their original owner.

So. Mr. Lyon...you said that you got rid of those items? [Oswald writes something down in the notebook] Interesting. I'll ask again: in what manner did you get rid of them?
