Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in Florida
Breaking lease due to rules not being inforced
In my lease it states that the pool area is to be closed at 11:00 pm so as not to disturb the resisdents living near the pool area and you must sign a form stating that you will comply with the rule. This rule is not inforced therefore people are at the pool area all hours of the night and who are loud and inconsiderate. I myself must get up between 2:30 and 3:00 am to get ready for work and it is hard for me to get sleep when there are people not following the rule. I have had to call the police about people disturging the peace. If this continues, does this give me the right to break my lease?

NOTE: This communication is not intended as and should not be interpreted as legal advice. Rather, it is intended solely as a general discussion of legal principles. You should not rely on or take action based on this communication without first presenting ALL relevant details to a competent attorney in your jurisdiction and then receiving the attorney's individualized advice for you. By reading the "Response" to your question or comment, you agree that the opinion expressed is not intended to, nor does it, create any attorney-client relationship, nor does it constitute legal advice to any person reviewing such information, nor will it be considered an attorney-client privileged communication. If you do not agree, then stop right here, and do not read any further.
Continue to call the police. Develop a file of complaints you have filed and provide copies of them to the office with detailed notes from you as to the time, date and cause of the complaint. The chances are that the management will voluntarily let you out of your lease rather than you having to break it. It will be much cleaner and less of a problem for you.
