Re: lease
For a 1-time event, probably not, unless the damage was intentional on the part of your son. Nevertheless, you will need to defend against the eviction.
Should you like to discuss this or any other legal matter, you can e-mail me for more information about low cost face-to-face, on-line, or a telephone consultation with a lawyer in our office.
