According to the Kansas Tenant's Handbook, written by Housing and Credit Counseling (http://www.kansaslegalservices.org/files/THB.pdf):

Occupancy by an EMPLOYEE of a landlord whose right to occupancy is conditional upon employment in and about the premises does not fall under the Kansas Residential Landlord and Tenant Act. Under that Act in K.S.A. 58-2543

That does not in and of itself mean that he isn't entitled to some kind of notice. Just that it is not the notice you would normally avail yourself to under a normal landlord/tenant relationship.

My understanding from a long time ago is that they can give 48 hours notice. But that is old information and reliant on an unsure memory.

Check with your Housing authority for a better answer.

It says in the lease that 30 day eviction notice is suppose to be given if the person is no longer working but they have a lease! But i thought as long as you pay your rent and your lease isnt up then you can still reside there. And wont they have to take us to court and get the right eviction notice ?

    If you make the landlord take you to court to get you out, you'll have a difficult time finding another place to live -- most landlords don't want to bother with tenants who have eviction history and neither do employers who are looking for live-on-site employees such as your bf. Going this route will make an even bigger mess than you're already in!

    Generally speaking, if a residence is supplied as part of employment, your residence is lost when your employment ends.

    Yes, but you really don't want to do that. He'll not only have an eviction on his record, but your boyfriend won't have a very good employment reference.

    There are a lot of good, honest landlords who are on this message board. We're more than happy to tell a tenant when he is right and a landlord is wrong. In this case, however, I think you have a very weak case. I really recommend you pack it in and call it. Never burn bridges.

      Well if he still has a lease and it dont end for a few months they still need to follow thru with it rather than just kicking us out in short notice and they arent making this other ex employee leave. I do believe they were all let go from the job. Its not right how they are making us leave they said they will come change the lock on the door..but how can they do that without 30 day eviction and we have proof of when the lease is up and it says if they let him go from employment they still have to give 30days to let us move out!
