Legal Question in Real Estate Law in California
month to month lease termination
What is the law in california for a landlord terminating a month to month lease? Can they do it indiscriminately or can they do it whenever they want? Does this look like an eviction notice on one's record? Is it a 30 day notice or did the bill pass in california to require 60 days?

A 30 day notice may be given for no reason, as long as beyond the term and not done for illegal retaliation or discrinimination.

Re: month to month lease termination
A landlord needs no reason to terminate a month to month tenancy and need only give 30 days notice. It is not a matter of public record.
Re: month to month lease termination
It is not considered an eviction on your record. That only occurs if you do not move, and they need to go to court to get you to move.
There has been no 60 day legislation.

Your thought about a 60-day notice period probably comes from hearing about the relatively new requirement for 60 days' notice of rent increases exceeding 10%.
