What about the Anti-Eviction Law that was put in place. I was told there are 16 reasons and you have to have one of them to get them out even if the lease ends??? I know they will give me a hard time. They are not the best tenants. I let the woman have 2 horses there and her dog. I was too nice. I can't take her saying she is calling her lawyer one more time.....
What is your thought? Can they come after me legally?

Thanks!!!

You are not evicting them, you are simply giving them a notice that you will not be renewing their lease. If they refuse to leave, THEN you will be evicting them.

exactly ^^^ this is NOT eviction. You are just notifying them as require by the law that you will not renew the lease at the end of it May 31, 2012. You must give them at least 60 days notice that you will not renew. You only deal with eviction if they are 'hold over'. Meaning they are still there on June 1, 2012. There isn't anything for them to "come after you legally" for. You are simply not going to renew the lease. That's all.

oh.. and do it in writing... with proof. certified mail. If they don't sign to get the mail, that is when you need to have the other normal mail sent at the same time...you keep the certified one unopened if you ever need it in court should you end up needing to continue with eviction next summer.
