Tenant’s copy
554.134 Termination of estate at will or by sufferance or tenancy from year to year.
(1) Except as provided otherwise in this section, an estate at will or by sufferance may be terminated by either party by giving 1
month’s notice to the other party. If the rent reserved in a lease is payable at periods of less than 3 months, the time of notice is
sufficient if it is equal to the interval between the times of payment. Notice is not void because it states a day for the termination
of the tenancy that does not correspond to the conclusion or commencement of a rental period. The notice terminates the
tenancy at the end of a period equal in length to the interval between times of payment.
(3) A tenancy from year to year may be terminated by either party by a notice to quit, given at any time to the other party. The
notice shall terminate the lease at the expiration of 1 year from the time of the service of the notice.
