Legal Question in Real Estate Law in California

Re: I have three pets in rental home but only allowed two!

It's impossible to answer your question without looking at your lease, but generally speaking, the landlord needs to give you 3 days' notice of intent to elect forfeiture of your lease before the rental agreement is no longer in effect. Even if you cure this breach (assuming having 3 dogs is a breach) within 3 days of the notice, the landlord may be entitled to monetary damages (if the lease so specifies) See CCP 1161.5

Re: I have three pets in rental home but only allowed two!

after he gives you a 3 day notice to remedy the breach, in writing, you must fix the problem, or he can evict.

This is just general information. No representations are made and no attorney client relationship is established by this communication. In most matters there are strict time limitations within which actions may be taken or your rights will be compromised. We are not taking any action on your matter and will not be considered your attorney or tax representative until both you and we have signed a fee agreement.

We, therefore will take no action on your behalf unless a written retainer agreement is signed. There are strict deadlines, called statutes of limitation, within which claims or lawsuits must be filed. Therefore, if you do not retain SELIKLAW, you should immediately seek the services of another attorney or other advisor.

The landlord must give you a three day notice to cure the breach of the agreement. If you do so (get rid of one of the pets) he cannot do anything. If you do nothing, he can evict you.
