Description

This Letter from Tenant to Landlord - Lease Agreement Contains provision confessing judgment on a claim arising put of the rental agreement in violation of law. Notice Letter, T to LL, notification to LL that clause proporting to confess judgment is in violation of state law and void. Subject: Concerns Regarding Lease Provision Confessing Judgment in Violation of Law Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to address a matter of concern regarding our lease agreement for the property located in Oakland, Michigan. Specifically, I would like to discuss the provision confessing judgment on a claim arising out of the rental agreement, which, upon further investigation, appears to be in violation of Michigan state law. Section [X] of the lease agreement states that both parties agree to confess judgment on any claim arising from the rental agreement. However, after conducting thorough research and consulting with legal professionals, it has come to my attention that such a provision may not be enforceable and could be deemed invalid in the state of Michigan. It is important to emphasize that I value our landlord-tenant relationship and have always strived to comply with the terms of our lease. However, as a responsible tenant, I also believe it is essential to ensure that both parties are abiding by the law, which ultimately protects the rights of tenants and landlords alike. Upon reviewing the Michigan laws regarding lease agreements, I discovered that the use of confession of judgment clauses in residential rental agreements is prohibited. According to [reference specific law, e.g., Michigan Compiled Laws Section X], this provision is considered unenforceable and against public policy. While I understand that it may not have been your intention to include an unenforceable provision in our lease agreement, I kindly request that we rectify this situation to maintain a fair and valid lease agreement. I propose that we revise our lease agreement and remove the confession of judgment provision to ensure compliance with Michigan state law and protect both our rights and interests. I genuinely appreciate your understanding and collaboration in addressing this matter promptly. Please feel free to discuss this issue further with your legal advisor to ensure compliance with all relevant regulations in the state of Michigan. Thank you for your attention to this matter, and I look forward to resolving it amicably. Should you have any questions or require any additional information, please do not hesitate to contact me at [your contact information]. Sincerely, [Your Name] [Tenant's Address] [Tenant's Contact Information]
