Evicting TAW

[Daniel H.]

I am currently in the eviction process w two problem tenants(separate units). They are on month-to-month rental agreements. They have both gone to housing inspector and I have received some violations. I always resolve these issues right away and have kept up communication w the inspector. A few issues are taking some time to resolve and I am not sure if they will completely satisfy inspector. My question is when I go to court next week and they say they are not paying rent because of the violations, will this prevent me from evicting?

The violations do not interfere with their day to day living. Because they are month to month, does this make it easy to get them out even if there is still an unresolved violation? I could always just terminate the lease anyway right?
