10 day Notice of Material Noncompliance with Lease or Rental Agreement for Residential from Landlord to Tenant
§132 Tenant's Failure to Comply with Rental
Agreement or Perform Duties -
Rights and Duties of Landlord.
A. Except as otherwise provided in the
Oklahoma Residential Landlord and Tenant Act, if there is a noncompliance
by the tenant with the rental agreement or with Section 127 of this title
which noncompliance can be remedied by repair, replacement of a damaged
item, or cleaning and the tenant fails to comply as promptly as conditions
require in the case of an emergency or within ten (10) days after written
notice served as provided in subsection E of Section 111 of this title
by the landlord specifying the breach and requiring that the tenant remedy
it within that period of time, the landlord may enter the dwelling unit
and cause the work to be done in a workmanlike manner and thereafter submit
the itemized bill for the actual and reasonable cost or the fair and reasonable
value thereof as rent on the next date rent is due, or if the rental agreement
has terminated, for immediate payment. If the landlord remedies the breach
as provided in this subsection, the landlord may not terminate the rental
agreement by reason of the tenant's failure to remedy the breach.
B. Except as otherwise provided in the
Oklahoma Residential Landlord and Tenant Act, if there is a material noncompliance
by the tenant with the rental agreement or with any provision of Section
127 of this title, the landlord may deliver to the tenant a written notice
served as provided in subsection E of Section 111 of this title specifying
the acts and omissions constituting the noncompliance and that the rental
agreement will terminate upon a date not less than fifteen (15) days after
receipt of the notice unless remedied within ten (10) days. If the breach
is not remedied within ten (10) days from receipt of the notice, the rental
agreement shall terminate as provided in the notice. If within the ten (10)
days the tenant adequately remedies the breach complained of, or if the
landlord remedies the breach according to the provisions of subsection
A of this section, the rental agreement shall not terminate by reason of
the breach. Any subsequent breach of the lease or noncompliance under
this section shall be grounds, upon written notice to the tenant, for immediate
termination of the lease.
C. Notwithstanding other provisions of
this section, if there is a noncompliance by the tenant with the rental
agreement or with any of the provisions of Section 127 of this title, which
noncompliance causes or threatens to cause imminent and irremediable harm
to the premises or to any person and which noncompliance is not remedied
by the tenant as promptly as conditions require after the tenant has notice
of it, the landlord may terminate the rental agreement by immediately filing
a forcible entry and detainer action.
D. Any criminal activity that threatens the health, safety or right of peaceful enjoyment of the premises by other
tenants committed by a tenant or by any member of the tenant's household
or any guest or other person under the tenant's control or is a danger
to the premises and any drug-related criminal activity on or near the premises
by the tenant or by any member of the tenant's household or any guest or other person
under the tenant's control shall be grounds for immediate termination of
the lease.
