Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in Minnesota

I just moved out of my apt. June 30th. My lease was up May 9, 2010. After that you go month to month. They wanted a 60 day notice but we were unable to give them that when my husband found work out of state. It says " Failure to give proper written notice of termination will result in a re-rental fee of $100, plus any consequential damages." The Apt. was in perfect condition so no damage was done, in fact it was in better shape than when we moved in. They are trying to charge me a full months rent because they didn't get a 60 day notice, but our lease was up so legally can they make me pay that extra months rent that we didn't live there?

Yes, although the chronological term of the lease converts to month to month, other written provisions, including the 60 Day Notice requirement, remain in effect.

You are obligated for the additional month.
