Sounds like you still owe for half of August. If so, and the landlord complies with the technical requirements, of course you can be evicted for failure to pay your rent. Paying rent is not optional.

Your lease should define how long you can have a guest visit you within either a 6 month or 12 month period. If your lease does not define that you should consult with a local landlord tenant attorney and your landlord.

good luck.

If the landlord wants to penalize you somehow for the alleged violation, and you disagree, ultimately their only enforcement mechanism is to go to court. If you oppose it in court, then yes, the landlord will have the burden of proof regarding the violation.

As a tenant you have a duty to pay the full amount owed for rent every month, but your landlord can accept partial payments and still retain the right to terminate your tenancy for failure to pay rent.

Obviously the Judge did not think the Notice was fully technically correct. If you don't see the problem, review it with a landlord-tenant attorney to get their insight and how to fix.

If your rent was more than 4 days late, the landlord may charge a late fee assuming it is specified in your written lease agreement. $100 in my opinion is not an unreasonable late fee amount, assuming your total rent is more than $44 - i.e. someone else, such as a government program, is paying the...

Your insurance company might want it (though how much protection from falling does a screen actually provide?) and in the interests of protecting yourself, with the new lease paperwork you...

If a straight forward discussion with your landlord won't clear things up, consider retaining an attorney to "explain" things to them. If they insist on going forward, they will have the burden of proof at trial, which sounds to be a hard hurdle for them to meet. If they can't... View More

You don't say the basis she alleges for being able to evict you. IF you give her 30 days notice it will be enforceable against you and you cannot retract it without her permission.

If you are asking if a landlord can increase your rent, the answer is yes once every 12 months. Some landlords will have month to month rates higher than fixed term lease amounts. This is normal.

However, if you are asking if the amount of the increase is improper, it is important to know... View More

Short answer is maybe, because without more facts it is difficult to answer your question.
