State laws on leases and rental agreements can vary, but a landlord or property management company should provide you with a copy of your signed lease upon request. You should make your request in writing, so you have proof if there is a dispute later.
The tenant can get a copy of the lease, but unless the lease is recorded with the property records in the county clerk's office it is not public record and if the landlord does not want to give it to the guest then the guest would need to get a court subpoena for the lease.

Once each calendar year, at your request, your landlord or rental agency must provide you with a copy of your lease within 15 days of the request under California Civil Code 1962. Your first step would be to make a demand on the landlord for the lease. You should send it in a letter by certified mail.
Both the landlord and the tenant should retain original, signed copies. If there's ever a dispute you need to be able to erase any doubt about whether the lease is valid. Normally photocopies should be sufficient but originals are best. You should always specify the location you are asking about.
If you cannot find the lease information, contact your landlord/property manager via Messenger and ask them to share the lease with you. Your landlord/property manager can share a lease with you or require you to sign an agreement.
