30 or 60 day notice for exactly one year?

[Maria G.]

Hello,

I see that in California, landlords need to give 60-days of notice for leases that are over 1 year old, and 30 for under a year old. How about for an exactly one-year-old lease? I mean, let's say the lease goes from January 1 to December 31.

Thanks!

If the lease covered a leap year, would it be more than a year because it is 366 days?

It is probably much easier and safer to simply give 60 days notice for EVERY lease because you never know what a judge might say.
