Eviction Notices in Mississippi
Mississippi's eviction process is governed by the Mississippi Code. For nonpayment of rent, landlords must serve a 3-day notice to quit before filing an eviction action.
Mississippi's process moves relatively quickly once filed. Self-help evictions are prohibited, and a landlord must obtain a court judgment before removing a tenant.
