Your landlord has the right to terminate the "lease", even if there is no written lease agreement, by giving you a 30-day written notice of termination. If the notice was given during this month of November, you technically have until December 31, 2010, to vacate; if the notice was given in October, you would only have until November 30, 2010, to vacate. In either case, you will have to leave or the landlord will have the right to file a "Forcible Entry and Detainer" (FED) action to have you judicially evicted.
