QUESTION

Is my landlord in the wrong?

Asked on Feb 17th, 2021 on Landlord and Tenant Law - Florida
More details to this question:
My landlord has accused me of violating the lease. I donโ€™t believe I have violated the lease, but i understand this argument is too hard to argue. My lease states for the first violation โ€œIf there is a complaint we will investigate and if we conclude that the complaint is of merit, we will issue a written warning to you outlining the violation.โ€ I was charged $800 and when I brought up to my landlord that I never received a written warning she told me she sends out monthly emails stating the violation. I never check my email that they have, so I never saw this. Would this count as a written warning?

Yes. Unless the lease says otherwise, e-mails are considered writings.
