Legal Question in Civil Litigation in Florida

I was given an eviction notice from my landlord's lawyer on January 18th 2013 and was asked to leave the premises February 4th 2013. I found out the reason the landlord is evicting me, because i asked her to fix things in the Apartment that have been broken before i moved in. I have waited two years for her to fix things and she hasn't so i decided to write her a letter asking her to fix various things that were broken that i did not break but was done before i even moved here. And all i get in return is an eviction notice. Is this even legal? Can i fight this? How can i prove she is doing this? I have proof and pictures of non repairs with the date and time visible.

Non repairs is not a defense to termination of an oral lease, if that is what it is or a holdover lease.
