Pretty good analysis. Also, if it is a condo tenant, is it the owner evicting them or the Condo Ass? If it is the owner, I am not even sure how the condo statute or condo docs would impact it as those are typically agreements between the owner and the condo ass., not the owner and tenant. May need more facts to fully address the issue. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>James Zink, Esq.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>Florida Rural Legal Services, Inc.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>3111 South Dixie Highway, Suite 140<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>West Palm Beach, FL 33405<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>Phone: (561) 820-8902 x. 6025<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>Fax: (561) 820-8892<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><i><span style='font-size:8.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black'>The information contained in this e-mail, including any attachment(s), is intended solely for use by the named addressee(s).
