Beginning July 1 next year, a new state law will allow landlords to terminate leases with or without cause. Currently, landlords must follow legal procedures and obtain a court order to evict tenants. Supporters of the new law say a lease has a specified time frame and should not bind a property owner indefinitely. Opponents say the bill ends an important protection for tenants at a time when there is a statewide shortage of vacant apartments.

This week’s TeleTalk question: Do you support the new law that allows landlords to evict tenants?
