Legal Question in Family Law in California

wife gives seven day eviction notice to husband

good morning

My wife of four years has informed me that she wants a divorce and is demanding that I vacate our rental home by next week, because the house owners happen to be her parents. We have lived and payed rent there for the past eight years.

she has warned me that if I dont comply she will change the locks of the house. Can she do that under law? thank you for your time.

Re: wife gives seven day eviction notice to husband

If you paid by the week, she can give you one-weeks notice. By the month, one month notice. Did you pay at all?

After appropriate notice, they can seek an eviction by unlawful detainer or forcible detainer.

I suggest you look for a new place to live.
