MI SB0903

Amends the Truth in Renting Act to replace archaic language, changing "which" to "that" and "shall" to "must" throughout Section 6.

Clarifies that tenants may recover $250 per action for violations of rental agreement provisions, or actual damages whichever is greater; increases to $500 or actual damages for missing required provisions.

Allows tenants to skip the 20-day notice requirement to landlords if the violating provision was previously found unlawful by a court, if the landlord had actual knowledge of the violation, or if a required provision was knowingly omitted.

Removes outdated reference to section 39(2) of chapter 66 of the Revised Statutes of 1846 (MCL 554.139) regarding judicial construction of statutes.

Takes effect only if Senate Bills 900, 901, 902, and one additional bill (request no. 00622'23) are also enacted into law.
