If there was no new lease signed then all the terms on the original lease apply regardless if it went month to month. Look at the lease, I'm willing to bet it has provisions in it on what happens when it expires and most likely it will say that it goes to a month to month, or automatically renews.
Regardless, you are still bound by the provisions of that original lease while the original lease was in effect. So they could claim that you smoked while the original lease was in place. I know your argument, that they didnt enforce the no pet clause. But that doesnt make the rest of the lease invalid. I know its not what you want to hear and I'm not trying to defend these idiots but owning several rental properties over the years thats the way it is.
Now, if you want to play dirty and get even go to camophone.com and start calling the other tenants with the landlords number appearing on their caller id and tell them they have to move because they're fat, black, whatever. Call in the middle of the night and tell them you need a place to crash cause you're drunk, just fuck with them any way you can think of, you'll sleep better.
