Tenancy.

Existing law regulates the terms and conditions of residential tenancies. Existing law specifies that a person who hires part of a room for a dwelling is entitled to the whole of the room, notwithstanding any agreement to the contrary. Existing law also specifies that if a landlord lets a room as a dwelling for more than one family, every tenant in the building, under the same landlord, is relieved from all obligation to pay rent while the double letting of any room continues. This bill would make nonsubstantive changes to the provisions above relating to hiring a room and double letting.
