California Eviction Forms

Why You Need California Eviction Forms?

California Eviction Notices and Forms are critical in the eviction process because Eviction Laws in California requires all persons residing in the property in question to be served with a proper Eviction form. If preparation or service of the Notice / Eviction Form is done incorrectly or not at all and the tenant raises it as a defense, the Court may dismiss the Landlord’s complaint due to a procedural defect and the tenant may prevail at trial.

California Eviction Forms: Types of Eviction Forms

A California Eviction Form and Eviction Notice is issued upon the termination of the landlord-tenant relationship. Basically, there are four types of eviction Forms to use for your notice

California Eviction Forms: 3-Day Notice to Pay Rent or Quit

A 3-Day Notice to Pay Rent or Quit is used to give any tenant notice that they owe rent for a certain period of time and they must either pay the rent due within 3 days or vacate the property within 3 days. If the tenant does not comply with the notice, an Unlawful Detainer action will have to be filed so that the owner may regain possession of the property. If the tenant chooses to vacate the property within the three days, the owner can still file a small claims complaint against the tenant for the unpaid rent. This notice is usually served on a tenant after the rent has become late according to the rental agreement.

California Eviction Forms: 3-Day Notice to Perform Covenant

A 3-Day Notice to Perform Covenant is used to give a tenant who is on a written rental agreement notice that they have breached their contract in some manner and that breach needs to be cured.

This notice can be used to ask for late fees as long as there is a clause in the written agreement, which can be sited.

This notice can also be used for a non-paid security deposit, an unauthorized pet, or a utility payment that is due.

As long as there is a clause in the agreement, which can be cited, this notice can be used to give the tenant notice of the breach in contract and how the tenant needs to cure the breach. The tenant is supposed to comply with the notice within 3 days, or legal action may be taken.
