Practice question
A lease-default action concerns land rather than a building. No contrary demand-period stipulation applies. Counsel copies a building form alleging that five days after demand is invariably sufficient. What correction is needed?
- For land, address the 15-day period after the required demand under Rule 70, Section 2.
- Use a one-day period for every land lease.
- Delete all demand facts because land leases are exempt.
- Treat every land lease as a forcible entry.
- Allege that the title’s assessed value replaces demand.
