[¶10] In a somewhat confusing brief, Jackson argues, in turn, that (1) Sherwood's notice to quit did not provide him proper notice of all the reasons for the termination of his lease; (2) contrary to Sherwood's contentions, he had allowed his apartment to be inspected; (3) at the time Sherwood served him with a notice to quit, he no longer had marijuana in his apartment; (4) the lease did not prohibit the use of marijuana because such use was legal under Maine law and he had a valid certificate for it; (5) the no smoking policy failed to define 'smoke' or 'smoking' "leading a reasonable tenant to conclude that it applied to tobacco smoke only"; and (6) to the extent that the lease did prohibit the use of marijuana by someone with a valid certificate, the lease violated the United States Housing Act.
