Tenants in Georgia had to move out of their rental property due to flooding and related damage. After twenty-four days without getting a return date from the landlord, they sent the landlord a letter stating that they were terminating their tenancy. Four months later, the landlord sued them for rent through the end their lease term. The landlord says that uninhabitability is not grounds to break a lease. Can the landlord get rent even though they had to move due to flood damage?
