636 charsIt is undisputed that the state complied with the eviction procedures set forth in the Landlord-Tenant Act. We agree with the United States District Court that the 1982 leases are periodic month-to-month tenancies; consequently, the state was permitted to evict the tenants for no cause. The tenants assert that by including paragraph nine in the leases, the state may evict only for the specified causes in that paragraph.2 We disagree. To hold otherwise would be tantamount to declaring that the tenants acquired perpetual leases in derogation of G.L.1956 § 37-7-5, which limits leases with the state to a maximum period of ten years.
