Marefat v. Dixon CA2/4
On November 24, 2020, the trial court conducted a one-day bench trial on plaintiff’s complaint asserting breach of contract and trespass to real property against defendants. The record does not include a reporter’s transcript, so we instead rely on the description of the evidence in the agreed statement as well as the exhibits admitted into evidence by the court.
On October 31, 2014, plaintiff and defendants entered into a three-year residential lease agreement for real property located on Colina Court in Palmdale, California (subject property). Defendants agreed to pay rent at the monthly rate of $1,775, to begin November 1, 2014. A late charge would be incurred by defendants if rent was not received five days after the due date. The agreement further stated, “The rent is due and payable to the landlord only. No payments shall be made to any third party on landlord’s behalf except with an express advance written authorization from the landlord.”
