Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in Florida

I'm in Orlando and received a Notice of Termination of Lease Agreement from my landlord for violating the unauthorized guest clause in my lease agreement. However, from my interpretation of Fla. Sta. 83.56(2)(b) it seems to state that this is a curable lease violation and they are required to give me one notice allowing me to cure the violation. This statute specifically cites unauthorized guests. Is the law on my side on this one or not? Are they required to first issue me a written notice allowing me to cure the violation PRIOR to issuing me the Notice of Termination of Lease Agreement?

If the breach is of the kind that they need to follow the quoted statute than yes. Make sure the non compliance is actually the kind that meets the (b) criteria and not the (a) paragraph criteria. best to have an attorney review the termination of lease and respond appropriately.
