Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in Florida
Can my lease be terminated because one of the people on the list has a felony on their record?
1 Answer from Attorneys
It depends on what your lease says. If a clean record is a condition of the lease then probably so. If you were asked about any convictions and the response was "no" when actually it was "yes" then the landlord MAY be able to terminate the lease.
