What North Dakota law requires
Before filing, the landlord must give 3 days' written notice of intention to evict. Eviction is available when rent is unpaid for 3 days after it is due. The notice may be served the same way as a summons. If the tenant cannot be found, the sheriff or a process server may post it conspicuously on the premises. The statute does not prescribe wording. The court's Form 1a states the unpaid rent, the months it covers, other charges due under the lease, and the total, and demands payment or move-out within 3 days of service.

Fill-in draft
Replace every [bracketed] item. If your state or city requires specific wording, a specific form, or a translated version, that requirement controls over this draft. Courts dismiss eviction cases over defective notices — if anything is unclear, talk to a lawyer.
