Its not really safe to make sweeping generalizations about evictions and laws regarding leasing - they vary greatly between states.
But in EVERY state the landlord must give notice according to the terms of the lease or superseding state law.

It's okay whether or not you get away with it.
Some things are morally wrong. However, possessing a firearm harms nobody. It's not wrong. Sometimes, it can get you into trouble, and you may choose to follow a law or rule, because it's not worth the cost to you. I doubt anyone here thinks it's morally wrong to have a gun in your pocket if you don't hurt anyone, but most of us won't do it without a permit because we don't want to deal with the consequences of being caught carrying illegally.
As far as the lease is concerned, consider the consequences and the likelihood of there being any. Decide what the risk is, and whether you are willing to accept it. The landlord is doing the same thing; he has no moral investment in the lease agreement, either.
It's hard to live a life with any degree of peace and liberty, if you don't bother separating out the real stuff from the bull****. So much in our society is left unsaid; you have to sort out what really matters.
Follow your moral code when it comes to any act that actually has an impact on another person (or yourself).
So I take it you are for the legalization of drugs? If my meth lab harms nobody then it should be ok right?Originally posted by ArmedBear: No.

Pretty poor straw man.
So I take it you are for the legalization of drugs? If my meth lab harms nobody then it should be ok right?
Is making an agreement (a signed contract in this case, mind you) and then not following through with your end of the bargain wrong?
Can the condition be enforced? Yes. If the lease is voluntarily signed and there are no state or federal regulations counter to the prohibition then it is fully enforceable.
So, anything is okay as long as you get away with it?
I kind of take offense to all of those that advocate "screw the landlord" - that's me.
I belive the Constitution can and would be considered a Federal regulation:
..The right of the People to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.
That said, if the landlord can violate your 2nd Amdnt. rights, then could they not also place a clause in the lease staing that you must allow people in the military to stay with you for free? (Third Amndt) or even better a clause stating that you cannot petition your congressman from your apartment (1st Amndt)?
