Document background
The Non-Lease Eviction Notice is a crucial legal document used in the Philippines when property owners need to remove unauthorized occupants from their property where no formal lease agreement exists. This document is particularly relevant in cases involving informal settlers, unauthorized occupants, or individuals who have entered the property without permission. The notice must comply with Philippine civil law, including the Civil Code of the Philippines and relevant presidential decrees governing property rights and eviction procedures. It serves as the first formal step in the legal eviction process and typically precedes any court action. The document must include specific elements required by Philippine law, such as clear identification of the property, reasonable vacation timeline, and reference to applicable legal provisions. It's important to note that in the Philippines, attempting barangay-level mediation may be required before proceeding with formal eviction procedures.
