Opinion

Gen. No. 43,788. (Abstract of Decision.)

Opinion filed January 6, 1947 Released for publication January 20, 1947

LANDLORD AND TENANT, § 313when notice of landlord's intention to insist upon strict compliance with lease terms was prerequisite to right to forfeit lease. In forcible detainer action to recover possession of apartment based on violation of written provisions of lease forbidding use of premises for rooming purposes, plaintiff's knowledge that defendants had been keeping roomers in apartment for many years contrary to provisions of lease and her failure to object to such practice did not preclude her right to declare forfeiture of lease, where plaintiff gave defendants written notice that she would insist upon strict compliance with terms of lease and defendants failed to cease violations after 10-day notice period had expired.
