Cal. Civ. Code § 70-33-109
The provisions of this chapter are cohesive with the provisions of Title 70, chapter 25, and the two chapters must be read in conjunction when considering, with regards to the Montana Residential Mobile Home Lot Rental Act, the rights and duties of landlords and tenants, and the availability of remedies and judicial relief to landlords and tenants.

Plain English

Mont. Code Ann. § 70-33-109 establishes that the Montana Residential Mobile Home Lot Rental Act (Title 70, chapter 33) and the security deposit statutes in Title 70, chapter 25 operate together as a unified legal framework. Neither chapter stands alone when questions arise about landlord and tenant rights, duties, or available remedies in the mobile home lot rental context. Courts and parties must consider both chapters together to get a complete picture of the applicable rules.

For Property Managers

Under Mont. Code Ann. § 70-33-109, operators of mobile home lot rentals are generally expected to be familiar with both the Montana Residential Mobile Home Lot Rental Act and the security deposit provisions in Title 70, chapter 25, since compliance with one chapter does not substitute for compliance with the other. A compliant operator typically reviews both chapters when handling security deposits, determining tenant rights, or assessing available remedies. Overlooking either chapter when managing a mobile home lot tenancy may leave obligations unaddressed.

For Tenants

Mont. Code Ann. § 70-33-109 means that as a mobile home lot renter, your rights and your landlord's duties are drawn from two separate chapters of Montana law that must be read together — the Montana Residential Mobile Home Lot Rental Act and the security deposit statutes in Title 70, chapter 25. If a dispute arises over a security deposit or other remedy, both chapters may be relevant to what relief is available. Tenants can consult a tenant-rights organization or legal aid provider to understand how these two chapters interact in a given situation.
