Michigan HB4982 increases the notice period for terminating a tenancy for nonpayment of rent from 7 days to 14 days.

Michigan HB4982 amends the landlord-tenant law to increase the notice period for terminating a tenancy due to nonpayment of rent from 7 days to 14 days. This change applies to tenancies at will or by sufferance. The bill also specifies that if a tenant holds over after a lease is terminated due to drug-related activities, the landlord may terminate the tenancy with a 24-hour notice. The definition of "controlled substance" is included, referring to substances classified in schedules 1, 2, or 3 under the public health code.
