RE:Tenant Refused to leave the property. (modified 0 times) Boring This is civil case not criminal case...the police station will not attained ur lodge except the tenant threaten u. So, what u can do just give a notice with reasonable days to quit (1st, 2nd and 3rd reminder) to them. Then ask your lawyer to take legal action against them. Dont worry all expenses will born by defendant if u win or get court order "PERINTAH KELUAR"... Note : make sure your tenancy agreement is stamped and if u forget stamped it before, stamp now with Land Revenue Department and pay the penalty.... 13 Jul, 2010 03:58:02

RE:Tenant Refused to leave the property. (modified 0 times) present Profile | Email If my tenant do not pay for the utility bill for more than 3 months, can I ask them to leave my house. They always give excuse for late payment on rental as well. When we sign contract, there is a clause mention that "If the said rent or any part thereof or any payment payable to the landlord as stated in this agreement shall be unpaid for 14 days after becoming payable (whether the same shall have been formally demanded or not) or if any of the agreements or covenants herein expressed and on the part of the tenant to be performed or observed or if the tenant shall become bankrupt or wound-up, whether compulsory or voluntarily, or enter into any arrangement or composition with its creditors or suffer any distress or execution to be levied on goods then and in any of the said cases it shall be lawful for the landlord at anytime thereafter to re-enter upon the premises or any part thereof in the name of the whole and thereupon this tenancy shall absolutely determine but without prejudice to the rights of action of the landlord in respect of any antecedent breach of the agreement on the part of the tenant herein contained." Hence, i can ask them to move out from my premise if they didnt pay either the rental or utility bill, right? Thanks!! 05 Nov, 2011 01:17:29
