Under K.S.A. 58-2564, a Kansas landlord must give a 3-day written notice for nonpayment of rent before terminating. For other material lease violations, the tenant gets a 30-day termination notice with a 14-day window to cure the breach in good faith.
K.S.A. 58-2564(b) governs nonpayment: if rent is unpaid when due, the landlord gives written notice that the tenancy terminates if rent is not paid "within three days" (an additional two days if the notice is mailed). For other material noncompliance, subsection (a) requires written notice specifying the breach and stating the agreement "will terminate upon a date not less than 30 days after receipt," while giving the tenant 14 days to remedy; if the tenant cures in good faith within 14 days, termination is avoided. For a repeat of similar conduct, the landlord may issue a 30-day termination notice without a further cure opportunity. Formal eviction (forcible detainer) is then filed in court.
No specific statutory penalty for the notice itself. A landlord must use the court eviction process; self-help lockouts or utility shutoffs are prohibited and expose the landlord to tenant claims for damages and injunctive relief.
