Rent Demand Contains Stamp of Landlord's Corporate Name

LVT Number: 12910

Landlord sued to evict tenant for nonpayment of rent. Tenant claimed that landlord's rent demand notice was defective because it wasn't actually signed by landlord. The court ruled against tenant. A stamp of landlord's corporate name on the rent demand notice is sufficient under the law. No actual signature is required.
