CAN MY LANDLORD EVICT ME FOR SMOKING?

QUESTION:
I'm subletting an apartment. My landlord wants to evict me for smoking -- and for allowing my guests to smoke, too. The tenant whom I rent from didn't mention any rules about smoking, nor were there any in the tenant's lease nor in my month-to-month sublease. I pay rent on time. What are my rights?

landlord cannot change its terms until the lease expires. If that tenant rents month-to-month, the landlord can make a change after giving the tenant proper notice -- that is 30 days in most states.
Now, since you are a subtenant of a tenant with a lease, you must abide by the terms and conditions of the tenant's lease. For example, a no-pets clause in the lease would apply to you. But you also get to enjoy the rule about no changes mid-lease -- which means that the landlord cannot insist that you stop smoking. But watch out -- if the tenant from whom you rent were to decide that he didn't want you to smoke in the apartment, he could give you proper notice (again, usually 30 days) and you'd have to comply.
