A Montana 3-day notice to quit (non-compliance) for unauthorized persons and pets is a legal document that informs a tenant they are harboring unauthorized individuals or pets on the rental premises, which is a violation of the lease agreement. The tenant is given three (3) days to rectify the situation by removing the unauthorized persons or pets. This notice is applicable in situations where the lease explicitly prohibits such occupancy or pet ownership, and the violation is immediately rectifiable.
Within the three-day period, the tenant must either ensure the unauthorized individuals or pets are no longer on the property or prepare to vacate the premises. Failure to comply with this notice allows the landlord to initiate eviction proceedings. This notice is specifically tailored to address violations involving unauthorized occupants or pets, as distinguished from other types of lease violations or property abandonment scenarios.
