This package contains the notices required by state law to be provided to a tenant before an eviction complaint is filed in court. The package contains a variety of notices, so that a landlord may select the one required under the circumstances involved and applicable statutory requirements. The following forms are included:
Notice to Terminate Year to Year Lease - Nonresidential - 60 Days Prior to End of Term - This form is used by the landlord to terminate a non-residential year-to-year lease (one which continues from year to year until terminated by the landlord or tenant). "Non-Residential" includes commercial or industrial property. The landlord does not need a reason to terminate the lease. The termination notice must be served on the tenant at least 60 days prior to the end of the current lease year. The lease then terminates at the end of the lease year.
30 Day Notice to Terminate Month to Month Lease for Nonresidential from Landlord to Tenant - This form is for use by a landlord to terminate a month-to-month non-residential lease. "Non-Residential" includes commercial, industrial, etc. property. Unless a written agreement provides otherwise, the landlord does not have to have a reason for terminating the lease in this manner, other than a desire to end the lease. A month-to-month lease is one which continues from month-to-month unless either party chooses to terminate. Unless a written agreement provides for a longer notice, 30 days notice is required prior to termination in this state. The notice must be given to the tenant within at least 30 days prior to the termination date. The form indicates that the landlord has chosen to terminate the lease, and states the deadline date by which the tenant must vacate the premises.
10 Day Notice Of Termination - Residential - Chance to Cure Not Required
- This form is used by the landlord to terminate a residential lease due to breach of the lease. "Residential" includes a house, apartment or condo. The reason for termination is identified and the tenant is given no chance to cure the breach, unless the landlord desires (a check-box is used to indicate whether or not the tenant is allowed a chance to cure). The tenant is given 10 days to cure or vacate the premises (or to vacate the premises if cure is not allowed).
30 Day Notice to Terminate At-Will, Sufferance or Less Than One Year Tenancy ?ˆ“ Residential - This form is used by the landlord to terminate a residential "at-will," "at-sufferance," or periodic lease of less than one year. "Residential" includes a house, apartment or condo. An "at-will" lease is one that continues from period to period (for example, month-to-month) and is terminable by either party for any reason or no reason. The "at-will" tenancy includes any periodic tenancy with a period (the interval between rent payments) of less than one year. An "at-sufferance" tenancy is one in which the tenant has no right to be there, but is only tolerated by the landlord.
10 day Notice to Pay Rent or Lease Terminated - This 10 day Notice to Pay Rent or Lease Terminated form is used by a landlord to order the tenant to either pay the overdue rent by a stated deadline or move out of the dwelling by the expiration of the time period. (Note: If a written agreement provides for a longer notice, use the notice length stated in the agreement). "Residential" includes a house, apartment or condo. If the tenant fails to pay or move out by the deadline, the landlord may begin eviction proceedings in court. If the landlord does not elect to proceed with termination or eviction but instead agrees to accept rent after the termination date stated in the notice, the lease is generally reinstated.
Eviction Notice Form for Louisiana: A Detailed Description Exploring Different Types In Louisiana, an eviction notice form is a legal document used by landlords to officially inform tenants that they must vacate the rental property due to a violation of their lease agreement. This form serves as the initial step in the eviction process and ensures that both parties are aware of their rights and responsibilities. Types of Eviction Notice Forms in Louisiana: 1. Notice to Quit: This type of eviction notice is typically issued when a tenant fails to pay rent on time or repeatedly violates the terms of their lease. The Notice to Quit provides a specific timeframe for the tenant to either rectify the issue (such as paying past due rent) or vacate the premises. 2. Notice to Cure: In situations where a tenant has violated certain lease provisions, such as excessive noise, unauthorized pets, or unauthorized alterations to the property, the landlord may issue a Notice to Cure. This notice provides the tenant with a reasonable period to correct the violation. If the tenant fails to comply within the specified timeframe, the landlord may proceed with eviction. 3. Notice of Lease Termination: Landlords may choose to terminate a lease agreement to regain possession of their property. The Notice of Lease Termination provides a designated notice period, allowing the tenant a certain number of days to vacate the premises before the lease agreement ends. Key Points to Include in an Eviction Notice Form: 1. Landlord and Tenant's Information: The eviction notice must include the names and contact information of both the landlord and the tenant(s). This ensures proper identification and facilitates future communication. 2. Property Details: Include the address of the rental property as well as any other essential information that accurately identifies the premises being referred to in the notice. 3. Reason for Eviction: Clearly state the violation(s) that led to the decision to issue an eviction notice. Whether it's non-payment of rent, breach of lease terms, or other lease violations, it is crucial to articulate the specific grounds for eviction. 4. Notice Period: Provide a specific notice period, usually in days, to allow the tenant an opportunity to rectify the situation or prepare to vacate the property. The timeframe should comply with Louisiana's legal requirements for eviction notices. 5. Landlord's Signature: The eviction notice must be signed by the landlord or an authorized representative. This signature verifies the authenticity of the notice and its compliance with the landlord's intentions. 6. Serving the Notice: Outline how the eviction notice will be delivered to the tenant. Louisiana's law permits various delivery methods such as personal service, certified mail, or posting the notice on the premises. It is crucial to remember that eviction laws can vary across different jurisdictions, and it is advisable to consult with a legal professional or refer to the specific Louisiana statutes to ensure compliance with state regulations.
