A notice to pay or quit (sometimes 'pay rent or quit') is a written demand a landlord serves when rent is overdue: it tells the tenant they have a set period to either pay the balance or vacate before the landlord may start an eviction case. It is typically the first formal step in a nonpayment eviction, not the eviction itself.
How much time the notice must allow, exactly what it must say, and how it has to be delivered are set by state and local law and vary widely — there is no single national deadline or format. Getting the period or the service method wrong can invalidate the notice and delay the whole process, which is why the specifics live in your state's rules.
Because a notice like this begins a legal process with real consequences, it is drafted and teed up but not filed by an autonomous system — a human decides. Aptoria can prepare the paperwork and surface it for your approval, while the eviction filing itself stays a human-gated action. Rules vary by jurisdiction — check your local law; this is general education, not legal advice.
