§ 1202 Court Notice Requirements

If a court thinks the required notice isn’t enough, it can order more notice or a longer time to give notice.

Key Takeaways

  • •The court can step in when notice is not adequate.
  • •It may require additional or longer notice to be given.
  • •This rule applies to any situation where the original notice is deemed insufficient.

Example

A landlord tries to evict a tenant but the notice they gave was too short or unclear.

The court says the notice was insufficient, so it orders the landlord to send another notice that gives the tenant more time—like an extra 10 days—before the eviction can proceed.
