Defendant Maria Dold's Demurrer to Complaint is SUSTAINED WITHOUT LEAVE TO AMEND. The Complaint fails to state a cause of action. (CCP 430.10(e).)
The Notice to Pay Rent or Quit is fatally defective because the Form 1007 Rent Board attachment is not the version that was in effect at the time the Notice was served. Section 37.9(c) of the Rent Ordinance requires a landlord to attach the form (i.e. Form 1007) published by the Rent Board. At the time the Notice was served, the outdated version attached by plaintiff was not the mandatory attachment referred to by Section 37.9(c), as only the currently effective version is published on the Rent Board's website.
Further, the outdated Form 1007 contains materially different contact information for the Rent Board than the current version, and therefore does not effectively notify the tenant that advice is available from the Rent Board, which is the purpose of the attachment. This defect cannot be cured by amending the pleading.
This matter will be heard at 1:30 p.m. in Department 502. =(501/VMH) Parties may appear in-person, telephonically or via Zoom (Video - Webinar ID: 160 560 5023; Password: 172849; or Phone Dial in: (669) 254-5252; Webinar ID: 160 560 5023; Password: 172849).
