landlord paid for someone to illegally enter our apartment NYS

By Michelle

Our landlord paid a plumber to enter our apartment without our knowledge, place a padlock on our basement door where our breaker box is.  The D.A. is saying this is civil.  That a landlord has the right to hire someone to enter your apartment without your knowledge or consent.  The excuse was he was making repairs.  But why would he place a padlock on the door?  We need access to the basement to turn our breaker back on, shut the water tank off if there is a flood.
