Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in California
If you have a signed lease to move in on January 9th, and then your landlord tells you on January 8th that you can't move in until January 13th, is that considered a breach of contract?

Probably not. If you look at your lease there is a good chance that there is a provision the you agree not to hold the landlord liable if they can't deliver the premises to you on time, and gives you only the right not to pay rent for that time, and possibly to cancel the lease if it longer than a certain time.
