II. DESCRIPTIONS OF FORMS

Brief descriptions of the forms contained in your U.S. Legal Forms™ Landlord Tenant Eviction / Unlawful Detainer Forms Package are found below.

3 Day Notice to Quit - This form is a notice from the landlord telling the tenant to vacate the premises within 3 days. This form is used pursuant to NRS 40.2514, which deals with tenants damaging the property, drug activity, nuisances, illegal business operations, and prohibited assignments or sublets. This type of notice is used to evict a tenant for something other than non-payment of rent. This notice needs to be followed-up with the service of the Five (5) Day Unlawful Detainer Notice.

30 Day Notice to Terminate Month to Month Lease - Residential from Landlord to Tenant - This form is for use by a landlord to terminate a month-to-month residential lease. "Residential" includes a house, apartment or condo. Unless a written agreement provides otherwise, the landlord does not have to have a reason for terminating the lease in this manner, other than a desire to end the lease. A month-to-month lease is one which continues from month-to-month unless either party chooses to terminate. Unless a written agreement provides for a longer notice, 30 days notice is required prior to termination in this state. The notice must be given to the tenant within at least 30 days prior to the termination date. The form indicates that the landlord has chosen to terminate the lease, and states the deadline date by which the tenant must vacate the premises.

5 Day Notice to Remedy Breach of Lease or Lease Terminates – Residential - This is the follow-up notice for the Three (3) Day Nuisance Notice and the Thirty (30) Day Notice. This form is used by a landlord to provide a residential tenant with 5 days notice to remedy a breach in the lease agreement, in accordance with the laws of your state. (Note: If a written agreement provides for a longer notice, use the notice length stated in the agreement). "Residential" includes a house, apartment or condo. The tenant is informed that the tenant must either remedy the breach or suffer possible termination. If he does not remedy the breach within the 5 day period, landlord may begin eviction proceedings.

5 Day Notice to Pay Rent or Lease Terminates – Residential - This form is used by a Landlord to demand payment of overdue rent from a residential tenant within 5 days from giving the notice in accordance with the laws of your state. (Note: If a written agreement provides for a longer notice, use the notice length stated in the agreement). "Residential" includes a house, apartment or condo. If the tenant fails to pay within 5 days, the lease may be considered terminated by the landlord. The tenant is informed that the tenant must either pay the rent or suffer possible termination. If he does not pay the landlord may begin eviction proceedings. If the landlord does not elect to proceed with termination or eviction but instead agrees to accept rent after the termination date stated in the Notice, the lease is generally reinstated.

5 Day Notice to Pay Rent or Lease Terminates - Nonresidential or Commercial - This form is used by a landlord to demand payment of overdue rent from a non-residential tenant within 5 days from giving the Notice in accordance with the laws of your state. (Note: If a written agreement provides for a longer notice, use the notice length stated in the agreement). "Non-Residential" includes commercial, industrial, etc. property. If the tenant fails to pay within 5 days, the lease may be considered terminated by the landlord. The tenant is informed that the tenant must either pay the rent or suffer possible termination. If he does not pay the landlord may begin eviction proceedings. If the landlord does not elect to proceed with termination or eviction but instead agrees to accept rent after the termination date stated in the notice, the lease is generally reinstated.

Complaint for Summary Eviction - This form is used by a landlord to start an eviction lawsuit in court against an unwanted tenant after notice to vacate has been given to the tenant. This form is used when the situation qualifies for an expedited process under the local court rules, such as being for nonpayment of rent only.

Complaint for Unlawful Detainer - This form is used by a landlord to start an eviction lawsuit in court against an unwanted tenant after notice to vacate has been given to the tenant.

Nevada Landlord and Tenant Law Handbook - This is a 32 page guide from the state court system. It contains an illustrative approach to common issues that arise, with links to relevant statutes.

IV. TIPS ON COMPLETING THE FORMS

The form(s) in this packet may contain “form fields” created using Microsoft Word or Adobe Acrobat (“.pdf” format). “Form fields” facilitate completion of the forms using your computer. They do not limit your ability to print the form “in blank” and complete with a typewriter or by hand.

It is also helpful to be able to see the location of the form fields. Go to the View menu, click on Toolbars, and then select Forms. This will open the Forms toolbar. Look for the button on the Forms toolbar that resembles a shaded letter “a”. Click this button and the form fields will be visible.

By clicking on the appropriate form field, you will be able to enter the needed information. In some instances, the form field and the line will disappear after information is entered. In other cases, it will not. The form was created to function in this manner.
