§ 336.2A-502 — Notice After Default

Plain-Language Summary

Under this section, a party who is in default on a lease contract is not entitled to receive notice of the default or notice of enforcement from the other party. This default rule applies unless the lease article or the lease agreement itself provides otherwise. In short, the law does not require the non-defaulting party to warn the defaulting party before enforcing the lease.

Practical Notes
By default, you do not have to send a defaulting party a notice of default or a notice of enforcement before acting, unless your lease or this article requires it. If you want notice and a chance to cure before enforcement, the lease must say so.
