Statutory Summary: KRS § 383.695
URLTA jurisdictions mandate 30 days written notice to vacate.
General Kentucky Rent Apportionment Precedents
In Kentucky, the terms outlined in the signed written lease agreement predominantly govern daily rent charges. However, under KRS § 383.695, when a tenancy terminates lawfully mid-cycle pursuant to a timely 30-day notice, courts typically favor actual calendar day proration based on the exact days of physical possession.
