The Illinois Notice to Defendant for Eviction is a legal document issued by a landlord to a tenant when they are in violation of their rental agreement or lease. The notice gives the tenant a certain amount of time to either remedy the violation or move out of the rental unit. There are two types of Illinois Notices to Defendant for Eviction: the Five-Day Notice to Quit and the Ten-Day Notice to Quit. The Five-Day Notice to Quit is issued when a tenant is in violation of their rental agreement, such as not paying rent, having unauthorized occupants, engaging in criminal activity, or causing damage to the property. The notice gives the tenant five days to either remedy the violation or move out of the rental unit. The Ten-Day Notice to Quit is issued when a tenant fails to pay rent by the due date. The notice gives the tenant ten days to either pay the rent or move out of the rental unit. Both types of Illinois Notice to Defendant for Eviction must be served in accordance with Illinois law and must provide the tenant with their legal rights and remedies. If the tenant fails to comply with the notice, the landlord may proceed with the eviction process.
