Understanding Eviction Notices

Summary

In Alabama, landlords are required to provide a 30-day eviction notice to month-to-month renters. A 7-day notice is only applicable for week-to-week renters. The landlords acceptance of a partial payment does not void the eviction notice. It is advisable to consult with a local attorney or contact the nearest court for further guidance.

I'm sorry to hear that you're going through an eviction. Can you please provide me with some more details about your situation?
im a month to month renter. can my landlord legally give me only a 7 day notice of eviction
In which state are you located?
Alabama
In Alabama, a landlord can give a *-day notice for eviction for month-to-month renters.
the law says they are supposed to give me a 30 day notice if im month to month and 7 day notice for week to week renters
You are correct. In Alabama, the law states that landlords are required to give month-to-month renters a *-day notice for eviction. However, for week-to-week renters, a *-day notice is sufficient.
then how can my landlord only give me ac7 day notice if im month to month renter
I understand your concern. It seems that your landlord is not following the law. You have the right to receive a *-day notice as a month-to-month renter in Alabama. You may want to consult with a local attorney or contact the nearest court for further assistance.
also after i recieved the notice if my landlord takes a partial payment from me does that void the notice
Taking a partial payment from you does not void the notice. The landlord can still proceed with the eviction process. It's best to consult with a local attorney or contact the nearest court for further guidance.
