Multiple choice. Only one of the following given answers is correct.

Mr. Green has a month to month lease for an apartment owned by Mr. Blue. The lease between Mr. Green and Mr. Blue is oral. How will the court handle the lease?

The court will recognize and enforce the lease.
The court due to the statute of frauds will not recognize or enforce the lease.
The court will not recognize the lease unless there is a subtenant.
The court will only recognize the lease if requested by the Secretary of State.

Explanation / Answer

Answer: (1) the court will recognize and force the lease as oral leases are contract provided that they are not for a period which exceeds one year. In this case the lease is month to month and therefore it qualifies as a legal agreement/contract.
