My question involves landlord-tenant law in the State of: CA
I let my niece & her boyfriend stay with me to save money to get an apt. They stayed for the months of Feb. & March for free & left for May (I kicked them out). They returned in May, 2011, with the stipulation that the boyfriend would then pay very cheap rent. May he gave me $250.00 plus $50.00 utilities. My niece lived here for free as family. I have received several complaints about the boyfriend for disturbing the peace. I am afraid he will get ME evicted! I had to call the police last night for all his yelling & screaming. (bad temper). My landlord wants anyone not on my lease out. The owner is coming to inspect the property on Monday 6/20/2011. I asked them to leave by Sunday to avoid MY being evicted. Do I have any legal rights? He paid rent in May, he then borrowed back $235.00 and still owes it. His June rent was 8 days late plus he still owes the $235.00. The complaints are always about him. I want my home back. Can I get him out sooner?
Can the landlord tell me anyone subletting is doing so illegally and must vacate? I hope this gives
you all the facts. No good deed goes unpunished. My rent is $1,100.00 and he has once given me
the $250.00 but late. Please help, I don't want to lose my home and they are saying they have no where to go. So I need a way to make them leave before I get a 30 day notice.
