Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in Florida
I live in florida and I am renting a condo here. I was going to move and had voiced that to my landlord. I did not give a written notice. I told her I changed my mind and was staying. She told me that I still had to move or she was going to evict me. Does she have a legal right to do so?

As a month to month tenant you can be evicted at anytime. FS 83.57 controls.

Your lease controls. Do you have a written lease? If not, then you have a tenancy by whatever period you pay your rental. If monthly, than 15 days notice is all that is needed to terminate.
