[RPPTL LandTen] HB 6069
Good afternoon. Attached for your consideration and comment is HB 6069 which was just introduced this week. This bill seriously impacts how evictions will proceed so I thought it would be a good idea to get comments from all of you who practice in this area in advance of the Section taking a position on this.
Thank you.

I am strongly against it the change. Without the "default" language, a tenant can plead any defense the wants to plead, valid or not. The result is to delay the landlord from quickly regaining possession of its property. It will also increase the landlord's attorney fees if I now have to have an evidentiary hearing to overcome the tenant's defenses and obtain an eviction judgment.

I don't do eviction or foreclosure work and so I don't really know the process, but have a question for the group. I recall when this was added to the landlord–tenant statute, it was a great benefit to landlords because if the tenant doesn't post in the rent in the registry, it's an immediate judgment. Is there anything comparable like that in the mortgage foreclosure world? I know from the recession that defaulted mortgage borrowers would raise defenses and keep the foreclosure going as long as possible while continuing to live in the house for free (no mortgage payment, no property taxes, no homeowner insurance, no association dues, etc.). If there isn't something comparable in the foreclosure world, I'm wondering what the difference is between a landlord trying to take back the leased premises from a tenant that didn't pay the rent and a lender trying to take back the mortgaged property from a borrower that didn't pay the mortgage. Maybe there's a philosophical difference/public policy notion that ownership of a home or other property is more sacred than simply renting. Or maybe the apartment owners have a better lobby.
Just curious.

There is an Order to Show cause means of foreclosing that at least in principle (not always in practice) should be faster but its not quite the same thing and in any case it doesn’t apply to residential property.

Confidentiality and Relationship Disclosure. If you are reading this, congratulations, you are probably the first. For years law firms have included lengthy disclosures at the bottom of their emails which in our view are of, at best, marginal legal value. We have decided not to do that. Instead, we will ask that if you got this email and shouldn't have, let us know and please don't read it (though if you've read this, chances are that ship has sailed). Also, just because we exchange emails doesn't make us your lawyer(s). If you would like to create an attorney/client relationship, we're glad to hear it and would be happy to provide you with an engagement letter. As soon as you have received written confirmation from us, you can consider our relationship formed.

On an unrelated note, I wanted to get everyone’s opinion with regard to a law firm “signing” an OL by simply writing the law firm’s name in the place for signing.
I do not see how this is sufficient to bind the firm but understand that it is a common practice particularly among the larger law firms.

This one is pretty much a no-brainer. To make this deletion completely
vitiates the language requiring the payment in the first place. It has to
stay in, otherwise the provision has no purpose.
Scary to think of who is responsible for drafting some of the proposals . .

Subject: [RPPTL LandTen] HB 6069
Good afternoon. Attached for your consideration and comment is HB 6069
which was just introduced this week. This bill seriously impacts how
evictions will proceed so I thought it would be a good idea to get comments
from all of you who practice in this area in advance of the Section taking a
position on this.
Thank you.
Brenda

Is this purely being proposed for residential, or is anyone aware of similar proposals on the non-residential (83.232) side?

Subject: Re: [RPPTL LandTen] HB 6069
I am strongly against it the change. Without the “default” language, a tenant can plead any defense the wants to plead, valid or not. The result is to delay the landlord from quickly regaining possession of its property. It will also increase the landlord’s attorney fees if I now have to have an evidentiary hearing to overcome the tenant’s defenses and obtain an eviction judgment.
. Do you know who is proposing the change and why?

This is not the first time that this has been introduced as a bill or was
close to it. I dealt with all the Section 83 issues for the Florida
Apartment Association for 25 years as their prior Legal Counsel and continue
to assist them on all the bills that involve them.
I can assure you that this will be vehemently opposed by the Florida
Apartment Association and also the National Association of Residential
Property Managers which has a number of chapters in Florida. Most of the
members are our clients as well.
I will keep you informed from the Florida Apartment Association and NARPM
end of it and can put you in touch with all the government affairs staff and
lobbyist. FAA uses Ron Book who many of you know.
This must be defeated.
