Under A.R.S. § 33-1368, Arizona landlords must give a 5-day written notice for nonpayment of rent and a 10-day notice to cure for other material lease violations before filing. Material and irreparable breaches allow immediate termination. Evictions proceed as special detainer actions under A.R.S. § 33-1377, with trial set 3–6 days out.
A.R.S. § 33-1368 requires that for unpaid rent the tenant has 'five days after written notice' to pay before the landlord may file a special detainer eviction; the tenant can reinstate by paying rent, fees, and court costs. For other material noncompliance, the landlord gives written notice that the agreement 'will terminate on a date not less than ten days after receipt of the notice,' with a chance to cure. A 'material and irreparable' breach — such as illegal drug activity, prostitution, or weapon discharge — permits an immediate-termination notice. Under A.R.S. § 33-1377, trial is set 'not more than six nor less than three days from the date of the summons,' with a writ of restitution following judgment.
No specific statutory penalty. A landlord who uses self-help (changing locks or removing belongings) instead of a court process can be liable to the tenant for damages; defective notice can result in dismissal of the eviction action.
