    Angry Can Tenant Break Lease if the Apartment Suddenly Won't Allow Company Vehicle

    My question involves landlord-tenant law in the State of: Florida

    My son received a notice on the door of his apt on Oct 1 that as of Nov 1 all company/commercial vehicles, boats, and trailers would be towed from the premises. He has a company vehicle that he drives to and from work and must have at home because he is on call. He has had this vehicle at the apts since his lease signing almost 2 years ago but a new management company just took over. He called the office the next day and explained his situation but they said there would be no exceptions, so he told them he had no choice but to move immediately. Today, Oct 6, there was another notice on his door stating that if he vacated the premises or was evicted they would pursue legal action to claim all rent owed through the end of the lease agreement.

    Does my son have any legal standing to move out and break his lease due to the mandatory nature of his company vehicle? Can the management company decide all of a sudden to not allow company vehicles when such is not stated in the lease agreement? And if so, does that allow a lessee to get out of such lease with no penalty?

    The lease says what about parking?

    What sort of commercial vehicle are we talking about?
