Valerie recently lost her job and, for the last three months, has neglected to pay her landlord the monthly rent they agreed upon in writing when she moved into her apartment eight months ago.	Correct	As for whether you have lost the job or not it doesn't make you immune to not paying the rent without even informing the landlord about the cause.
Mark writes a letter to his landlord that lists numerous complaints about the apartment he has agreed to rent for two years.	Incorrect	It is the duty of the landlord to check the proper maintenance of the property put on the lease.
Leslie thinks that her landlord is neglecting the building in which she rents an apartment. She calls her attorney to ask for advice.	Incorrect	Asking attorney for an advice doesn't implicate you are violating a lease agreement, you are rightfully allowed to do so.

Option 2 is the correct answer.

As not paying rent is considered a violation of the legally binding document signed between landlord and tenant.
