In Idaho, landlords must follow specific procedures to evict a tenant. Here are some key points:
- A landlord must provide a written notice before initiating eviction.
- The notice period varies based on the reason for eviction.
- If the tenant does not comply, the landlord must file an eviction lawsuit.
Is your landlord providing you with written notices, and what reason are they giving for the eviction?
he has provided me with * notices that are three day pay to vacate, but nothing further has happened. Nothing has been filed with the courts.
****, it sounds like your landlord hasn't taken the next legal step by filing an eviction lawsuit yet. In Idaho, until the landlord files with the court, you are not legally required to vacate.
- Ensure you keep records of all notices and communications.
- If you feel your rights are being violated, consider contacting a local tenant rights organization or a lawyer for further advice.
