Montana HB800 revises landlord and tenant laws, clarifying exclusions and procedures for handling abandoned property.
Montana HB800 revises landlord and tenant laws by specifying exclusions from the Montana Residential Landlord and Tenant Act of 1977. It clarifies that the act does not apply to invitees who have not established a landlord-tenant relationship, and those who refuse to leave when asked can be prosecuted for criminal trespass. The bill also outlines procedures for landlords to follow when handling personal property left behind by tenants after lease termination, including notice requirements and permissible disposal methods.
