described in paragraph (4) of Section 1161 of the California Code of Civil Procedure, as may be amended. If a Tenant or Resident engages in conduct that constitutes a nuisance, the Landlord must provide the Tenant or Resident with a Written Notice to Cease or Correct. The Landlord must serve the Written Notice to Cease or Correct within five business days before serving a notice to terminate Tenancy. For purposes of this subsection, reasonable time shall mean not less than five business days. Provided, however, that where it is not reasonable that the time to abate the nuisance can be accomplished within five business days, the Tenant or Resident shall notify the Landlord either orally or in writing that he or she has taken steps to abate the nuisance and is diligently pursuing abatement. The Written Notice to Cease or Correct shall inform the Tenant or Resident (i) that the failure to abate the nuisance may result in the Landlord's initiating an eviction proceeding, (ii) the right to request reasonable accommodation and (iii) the contact number for the Rent Board. The Written Notice to Cease or Correct shall also include sufficient details allowing a reasonable person to comply and shall also include any information necessary to determine the date, time, place, witnesses present and other circumstances concerning the reasons for the Written Notice to Cease or Correct. If the Tenant or Resident creates the same or substantially similar nuisance within 12 months from the date the Tenant or Resident received the initial Written Notice to Cease or Correct, the Landlord need not serve a further written Warning Notice to Cease, but may then take action to terminate the Tenancy. 4. The Tenant/Resident had a written Lease or Rental Housing Agreement that terminated on or after January 1, 2020, and after a written request or demand from the Landlord, the Tenant/Resident has refused to execute a written extension or renewal of the Lease or Rental Housing Agreement for an additional term of the same or substantially similar provisions, provided that those terms do not violate this Section or any other provision of law. 5. Termination of a Tenancy for Engaging in Criminal Activity, including Drug -related Criminal Activity. A Landlord may initiate an action to terminate a Tenancy (as provided under State law) without providing a written Notice to Cease or Correct if all of the following are met: (a) The Tenant/Resident has: (1) Engaged in criminal activity, including drug -related criminal activity, in or near the Tenant's or Resident's Covered Rental Unit, or Rental Unit/Dwelling; or (2) Has engaged in or threatened violent or abusive behavior to other members of the Tenant's household or to other Tenants/Residents; or 25
