There are no specific stated statutes regarding the manner of which an eviction notice should be sent. There are essentials, however regarding the delivery of a summons which is done through the appropriate courts when a landlord files for eviction.
WARNING: Each circumstance is different and therefore may have different requirements for the proper delivery of notification. Whether it is a situation involving domestic abuse or a tenant abandons personal property in the rental unit - It is important to check and follow any local rules on the specific situation before using this notice.
Whether you’re providing a formal eviction notice or a simple nuisance letter, having proof can be essential and may be required under many circumstances. Let’s face it, the more verification a landlord accumulates the better in the long run. Judges and mediators tend to place a more positive emphasis on concrete evidence than on hearsay.
There are many court cases that are lost by either defendant or plaintiff because some type of form showing that notification was served to the other was absent. This not only is in landlord tenant or housing hearings but all kinds of court battles. So, you can see the importance of having this type of paper trail.
