Employee as Tenant
The eviction law usually requires that the landlord has cause to evict the tenant, such as non-payment of rent, or breaking a provision of the lease, such as having a prohibited pet. If the tenant is employed by the landlord and the landlord provides the residence rent free as part of the employment, the landlord can go immediately to court to evict the employee upon the termination of the employment. This situation waives the normal requirement to serve an advance notice to the tenant. However, if the arrangement requires a rent payment or the tenant still works for the landlord, the regular notice requirements apply.
