[§521-62]  Tenant's remedy of termination at
beginning of term.  If the landlord fails to conform to the rental
agreement, or is in material noncompliance with section 521-42(a), the tenant
may, on notice to the landlord, terminate the rental agreement and vacate the
dwelling unit at any time during the first week of occupancy.  The tenant shall
retain such right to terminate beyond the first week of occupancy so long as
the tenant remains in possession in reliance on a promise, whether written or
oral, by the landlord to correct all or any part of the condition which would
justify termination by the tenant under this section. [L 1972, c 132, pt of §1;
gen ch 1985]
