Existing law provides for the eviction of a tenant after a material breach of a lease agreement. Specifically, a tenant is entitled to up to four curable breaches of his or her lease in any 12-month period, any notice to terminate a lease is effective seven days after the notice, and a tenant may cure a breach if the breach is not considered a non-curable breach.
This bill would expand the list of non-curable lease breaches and shorten the notice period for a notice to a tenant of noncompliance with a lease from seven days to three days. This bill would also provide that a tenant is entitled to only two curable breaches of a lease agreement within any 12-month period and that any second breach of a lease agreement that is substantially the same as a previous breach within a six-month period constitutes a non-curable breach.
