[RPPTL LandTen] Commercial Landlord Tenant Materials
Good Morning!
Does anyone have any pro se educational materials on commercial landlord tenant law? I have a 70 year old individual who is seeking information on how to defend himself in a commercial landlord tenant case. Legal Aid Society does not represent commercial tenants and I don't have anything to give him about his rights or responsibilities a commercial tenant.
Any help will be greatly appreciated!

Good Morning!
I am doing a commercial eviction. The summons that I used stated "residential" at the top instead of "non-residential". The opposing attorney has done a motion to strike my summons because it does not say "commercial" at the top. In Pasco County, the summonses are exactly the same except for it stating "non-residential" at the top. Should I serve it again or take my chances in court?

The "residential" vs "non-residential" Summons that are used in Miami-Dade
provide much more advice or warnings to the defendant than the
"non-residential". The "residential" summons states you have 5 days to
answer, you need to post rent into the registry etc. the "non-residential"
says you have 5 days to answer and that is it. So the defendant has more
knowledge of the law if served with the "residential". I don't understand
the basis for a motion to strike because of the misnomer of the summons.
How was the defendant prejudiced. I say take your chances in Court.

Hi, everybody
I need help for a hearing that I have at 11:30 today. This is a very messy commercial eviction, partly due to the fact that opposing missed a hearing on Wednesday. My question is about my landlord's problem with a water leak. His tenant is allowing his ice maker to leak continually thus causing approximately 2500 gallons in water waste daily. The landlord has noticed him and he refuses to repair it. Can I do some type of emergency motion, at today's hearing, to get relief for my landlord? This is a rehearing on FS 83.232 to deposit money in the registry. Thanks for your help

Florida Statutes 83.51 Landlord's obligation to maintain premises provides
in part that "Unless otherwise agreed in writing, . the landlord ... shall,
at all times during the tenancy, make reasonable provisions for: 1. The
extermination of rats, mice, roaches, ants, wood-destroying organisms, and
bedbugs. . "
One of my clients wants to shift the extermination burden to the tenants.
That's easy to draft, but do you know of any potential "unanticipated
consequences" that I should try to cover in the lease?

Perhaps a clause requiring the T to "sleep tight and don't let the bedbugs bite" would be in order?
Sorry, I couldn't resist.

Subject: [RPPTL LandTen] Bedbugs
Florida Statutes 83.51 Landlord's obligation to maintain premises provides in part that "Unless otherwise agreed in writing, ... the landlord ... shall, at all times during the tenancy, make reasonable provisions for: 1. The extermination of rats, mice, roaches, ants, wood-destroying organisms, and bedbugs. ... "
One of my clients wants to shift the extermination burden to the tenants. That's easy to draft, but do you know of any potential "unanticipated consequences" that I should try to cover in the lease?
