Synopsis

In this holdover proceeding premised on non-renewal of the lease, Respondent moved to dismiss on the ground that the predicate 60-day notice of termination was defective. The court granted the motion, finding that the grounds stated in the predicate notice—own use and occupancy—differed from those alleged in the petition—failure to pay rent—rendering the notice fatally defective and non-amendable.
