Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in California

You are in luck! California law requires that a landlord, in a month-to-month tenancy, must give the tenants a sixty (60) day notice to terminate tenancy if the tenant has occupied the property for one year or more! The landlord cannot simply now give you another 30 day notice, he must give you a new, sixty (60) day notice which runs from the time it is legally served. Wait until closer to the date on which the 30 day notice expires, then send him a letter indicating that you will not move until you are served with the property sixty (60) day notice, and then you will move at the end of that time. Be sure to pay all rent due between now and then - if you don't pay rent, he can then evict you on a three (3) day notice. In that letter, tell the landlord to go look at California Civil Code � 1946.1(b) which provides that he must provide a sixty (60) day notice.
