60 Day Notice Requirements

Summary

A 60-day notice to vacate in California does not need to be file stamped but must be written and correctly served. The tenant must vacate within 60 days, or the landlord can file for eviction. If the tenant moves out before the court date, the eviction process stops, and no court order is finalized. Power of Attorney can be granted without going to court by completing a notarized document. It can be general or limited to specific situations. To verify its validity, ensure it is signed, dated, and notarized. If you cant see the document, seek legal assistance. A landlords representative should provide proof of Power of Attorney upon request.
