Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in California

Per California Civil Code Section 1946 1 The unit is alienable separate from the title to any other dwelling unit for a buyer to do a OMI and to reduce a 60 day notice to 30 days.{ Question } what happens when the unit is { NOT } alienable & separate from the title to any other dwelling unit as required under CC 1946.1 and the existing owner knows this but still tries to get away with giving existing tenants of 3 yrs a 30 day notice & using OMI as the reason for a short notice for the new buyer. Is this not considered to be fraud PS we are in a no rent control county.

Your post does not make any sense. Civil Code section 1946.1 clearly prescribes the required amount of notice to terminate a periodic tenancy based on the length of the tenant's occupation. The notice requirements do not have to do whether the unit is separate or connected to any other units.
