Property Ownership
In Connecticut, a 'tenancy at will' exists when:
AA tenant holds over after a lease expires with the landlord's permission
BA month-to-month tenant refuses to pay rent
CA tenant occupies property with no formal lease and no fixed term, terminable by either party with proper notice✓ Correct
DA tenant remains after receiving an eviction notice
Explanation
A tenancy at will has no fixed term and can be terminated by either party with proper notice. Under Connecticut law, a month-to-month tenancy (which can arise when a fixed-term lease expires and the tenant remains with the landlord's acquiescence) is a common form of tenancy at will.
