Bill overview
This bill modifies the Truth in Renting Act to remove a cross-reference to the Revised Statutes of 1846. It clarifies the process tenants can use to seek legal remedies if a rental agreement contains violations of the act, outlining specific relief they can pursue, including voiding the agreement and recovering damages. The bill also establishes procedures for addressing violations, such as requiring landlords to provide notice and potentially joining multiple lawsuits related to the same provision.
