This question requires you to consider whether Laurenco had the right to terminate Tiffany’s periodic lease after she reported him. Note that most state impose an implied warranty of habitability, and think about how that might apply to this situation. Think also about the doctrine of Retaliatory Eviction and how that might apply here.
