Does signing a new contract after receiving an eviction notice make it invalid?

Dear Lawyers,

My landlord issued an eviction notice dated 31st July 2023, stating that I should vacate the property by 31st July 2024.

However, on the same day, the agency acting on behalf of the landlord sent an email saying the landlord agreed to sign a new contract with a 5% increase.

On 2nd August 2023, I signed a new contract, which is valid from 14th November 2023 to 13th November 2024. It was signed by the landlord, and Ejari was issued until 13th November 2024.

Now I want to renew the current contract, but the agency is saying there is an eviction, and I need to vacate the property. My understanding is that I signed a new contract after the eviction notice, and therefore, the eviction is no longer valid.

Am I entitled to renew the current contract, or do I need to comply with the eviction and leave the property?

Dear Questioner,

You can challenge the eviction notice because the renewing period had exceeded the formal eviction date fixed unless it is explicitly mentioned in the contract.

If you need further clarification, kindly share your WhatsApp number.

Yes, it is not valid so you need to make a new eviction notice.

Dear Questioner,

Thank you for reaching out with your inquiry regarding the eviction notice and the renewal of your tenancy contract.

Based on the information you’ve provided, it appears that the situation has complexities that need careful consideration.

Generally, once a new tenancy contract is signed after an eviction notice, the eviction notice may be considered nullified, especially if the contract is registered with Ejari, indicating a mutual agreement to continue the tenancy.

However, the specific terms of your contract, along with the timing of the events, will play a crucial role in determining your rights.

It’s important to review the details of the eviction notice, the new contract, and any communication between you and the agency.

I would be happy to assist you in reviewing these documents and providing you with legal advice tailored to your situation. This will help ensure that your rights as a tenant are fully protected.

Please feel free to reach out to me directly via WhatsApp or phone at [--------], or email me at [---------] to discuss your case further.

If the current lease agreement does not include an eviction clause, your position is correct, and the landlord should send a new eviction notice.

The previous eviction is not valid as a tenancy agreement was made after the eviction date. Therefore, a new eviction notice must be served.

Thank you!

Dear Questioner,

What I meant to say was that if you received a 12-month notice from July 2023 to July 2024, but your Ejari is from November 2023 to November 2024, this means you had a period from December 2023 to July 2024.

Your landlord could have issued an Ejari for 6 months, which would exactly match the notice period, but instead, he renewed for a full 12-month term.

21 Aug 2024, 21:42

The Ejari contract can be made for no less than 6 months and no more than 12 months.
