How to Calculate the 3-Day Notice

Count three days from the delivery of the notice. Don’t include Saturday, Sunday, and Legal Holidays. Don’t include the day of delivery of the notice.

For example, if you deliver the notice on Friday, the tenant has until Wednesday to pay the rent (if there are no legal holidays).

If you deliver on Monday, the tenant has until Thursday to pay. You can file for eviction the next day.

If you don’t want to deliver the notice yourself, find a Process Server to deliver it for you.
