In a recently decided case, a court found that a public housing agency (PHA) couldn’t evict a resident because the PHA didn’t strictly comply with the state’s notice-to-vacate requirements. Under Texas state law, for a tenant under a written lease, the owner must give the defaulting tenant at least three days' written notice to vacate before filing an eviction lawsuit, unless the parties have contracted in writing for a larger or smaller notice period.
