style="FONT-SIZE: small; FONT-FAMILY: tahoma,sans-serif">Are there limits as to
how far back actions for unpaid rent (3 Day Notices) or unpaid non-rent
obligations (10 Day Notices) can go?<BR><BR>I'm thinking of the situations where
a landlord tries to solve the problem itself and waits longer than it should
before calling a lawyer to start the unlawful detainer, such as by writing
letters and making phone calls to the tenant for the unpaid obligations.
I've seen situations where tenants are more than a year behind on their rent
before the owner realizes it can't be handled pro se.<BR><BR>Is there an actual
limit on how far back the notice can go before the landlord is deemed to have
waived his rights? Or a limit beyond which the pre-eviction notice would
be considered defective? I could not find authority on this issue.<BR><BR>
