It's not a statute, it's just a contract term that's agreed to in the lease (if it's there).
I can’t why something like that would be unenforceable? It’s not like it’s a right to keep a family or something (there’s caselaw about housing discrimination prohibiting non-nuclear families, etc.) but this is a guest policy. If someone is staying long term, but then on the lease.
So it is, but everyone is telling my client (the lessor) that despite it being in the lease, it's unenforceable. So I'm being asked to write memo as to why is valid and enforceable. I was hoping to find some case law.
There are many ways to approach this. There are statutes about how many non family members may be in residence w/ x bedrooms. The lease states who the residents are, guest not there. Less term about #days agreed to like any other lease term.
