<p class="MsoNormal">Written lease expires 11/30/13. Tenant failed to vacate. Monthly rent is $10K. Must be a nice house. Tenant then tendered the December rent of $10K to Landlord. After tender, Landlord filed suit for eviction. Then Landlord cashed the
$10K. Was a month to month lease created here which would be a defense to the eviction?
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Would the scenario be different if tenant tendered the $10K after the eviction was filed and landlord accepted it?
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I’m trying to figure out when month to months are established after leases expire. It seems like a landlord should be entitled to rent while the tenant remains without necessarily creating a month to month lease. I am familiar with 83.58.
