Question

One sunny day, the refrigerator in your rented apartment stops working. You are about to call your landlord, as you hope that she will agree to cover the expenses of the refrigerator's repair. Before calling her, you decide to check what your lease, which you signed without reading a few months ago, has to say about such situations. You take out the lease from the drawer, and you notice a "maintenance and repair" provision which reads as follows: "The lessee shall at all times keep and maintain the leased premises and all equipment and fixtures therein or used therein repaired, reasonable wear and tear only excepted. If lessee fails within a reasonable time, or improperly makes such repairs, then and in any such event or events, the lessor may (but shall not be obligated to) make such repairs and the Lessee shall reimburse the Lessor for the reasonable cost of such repairs in full, upon demand." What would you do next? Now suppose that you do call your landlord, and she refuses to make the necessary repairs, while referring you to your written lease. What would you do in that case?
