Asserting the March 3 notice is not only insufficient to raise rent May 1, but is wholly void, Rich correctly contends the court should not have granted Landlord summary judgment on the first cause of action. Landlord’s March 3 notice, untimely as to its stated May 1 effective date, is void and cannot properly increase rent 60 days after Tenants’ receipt. Contrary to Landlord’s assertion, Rich’s contention does not rest on the notice’s “technical” defect. Instead, the rule an insufficient notice is a nullity for all purposes recognizes Tenants’ reasonable expectation rent cannot be increased without a proper 60 days notice.
