That is not a reason for eviction. However when the term of your lease is up you will most likely have to move.

No, you can oppose any action on the grounds of retaliatory eviction. You should consult a real estate attorney to assist you.

No, but keep in mind, your landlord may have a right to terminate your lease at its end for no reason in particular.

Retaliatory evictions are not permitted in Florida.

Probably not, but the landlord can decide not to renew your lease.

No, but keep in mind that if you're on a month-to-month rental agreement either you or the landlord can give the other 30 days notice of termination at any time.

In Rhode Island a tenancy can be terminated for reasons other than non payment of rent. If there is a lease landlord has to wait until lease expires and give notice according to the lease. If no lease landlord is required to give at least 30 days notice. Ultimately you can be evicted for reasons other than non payment.

I need details, perhaps as generally suing people does not tend to enhance relationships and the tendency will be not to renew the lease.
