If you sent them notice via certified letter and they did not selection it up that is non your trouble. You should have gotten the letter dorsum so like other poster said continue it unopened and bring it to court with yous. This letter will exist all the prove the courtroom needs to prove that you did your due diligence. If yous are still unsure talk with your lawyer.

You lot should take posted notice on door with a witness AND transport certified alphabetic character or send certified alphabetic character AND sent regular mail letter. In both ways on the notice you should reference the other method of commitment that was besides give. Then in regular mail letter of the alphabet you have a annotation saying that notice was besides send via certified postal service and the date information technology was sent. If certified mail is not picked upwardly, then you keep it sealed unopened and bring to courtroom when you go to evict. You never open notice unless the guess has y'all practise so in court. Since you don't have rent from them what you need to do now is serve pay or quit notice. Make sure to follow law exactly for lenght of fourth dimension, wording, etc. Serve as said higher up, past two methods 1 being certified mail. If the 30 solar day observe was to terminate a month to month lease, I would once more in separate envelopes serve this notice equally well. That way in instance tenant does pay hire, they still have to motility out. If they either don't pay rent within time by the notice or if they do pay rent then don't go out in time with 30 day detect, then file for eviction in court. Don't accept annihilation other than FULL corporeality of rent due. If you take partial hire then y'all are stopping the eviction process.

A landlord must always bear witness to a approximate that tenant actually received the detect in gild to proceed with an eviction. If a notice to quit comes just past certified mail or registered mail and no 1 has signed for it (in other words, there is no proof that tenant received information technology), the landlord may not be able to prove that tenant got it, and the court should dismiss an eviction case that is based on that detect.

can't speak for other states but in nystate the landlord can not hand deliver the notice himself. Some other person must exercise it on his behalf with not less than four feasible days earlier the terminate of the period. He tin however send by register mailwith render reciept requested non less than 8 days before stop of viable period. Note weekend days are non viable practise non count. Also be certain that the date on the notice is a appointment later than the date mailed. Caution The feasible days start from the engagement on your notice. Since hand commitment by the landlord is not allowed it makes your discover invalid and a savey tenant who knows this tin ignore information technology and you must start the process over for the next calendar month.
