Synopsis

The landlord initiated a holdover proceeding to evict the tenant based on violations of lease obligations. The court dismissed the case due to the lease's expiration in September 2021, making the termination notice invalid. The landlord's reliance on an expired lease rendered the predicate notice defective, resulting in dismissal without prejudice.
