Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in California

Re: Eviction

I'm not too clear on whether "she" refers to the landlord or roomate number 3. But, basically, it sounds like you are the subtenant of the other two tenants. If the landlord gave at least 3 days written notice to pay up or quit, and you paid later than the stated deadline, the landlord could till proceed to evict all of you. However, if it is roommate #3 ordering you out, which I think you are saying it is, she cannot do it with a 5-day notice because you were not late paying her (I assume you weren't). In this circumstance, she would have to give a 30-day notice (60 days if you've been there more than one year).

Although I practice in Georgia, your question was sent to me because I am also a member of the California Bar since 1979.
