Your landlord must give you 30 days' notice of a rent hike if your lease is periodic and month-to-month or less. You're entitled to 30 days' notice if the increase is 10 percent or less and 60 days' notice if it's over 10 percent for other lease types. Your landlord must use the lowest rent you paid over the last 12 months.
California has a relatively short time in which to enforce a valid mechanics lien. In California, it is required that a mechanics lien be enforced within 90 days from the date on which the lien was recorded. If this 90-day period passes without an action being commenced to enforce the lien, the lien expires.
Notice of Completion. At the conclusion of work, or when work has been abandoned or suspended, the owner can file a Notice of Cessation or Notice of Completion with the county recorder. This acts to start the lien period, and conclude it more quickly than allowed by projects without such notices filed. If a Notice of Cessation or Completion is filed, the lien period is reduced from 90 days from completion of work to 60 days for prime contractors, and 30 days for subcontractors (from date of notice).
