§41-111. Termination of tenancy.
A. Except as otherwise provided in the Oklahoma Residential
Landlord and Tenant Act, when the tenancy is month-to-month or
tenancy at will, the landlord or tenant may terminate the tenancy
provided the landlord or tenant gives a written notice to the other
at least thirty (30) days before the date upon which the termination
is to become effective. The thirty-day period to terminate shall
begin to run from the date notice to terminate is served as provided
in subsection E of this section.
B. Except as otherwise provided in the Oklahoma Residential
Landlord and Tenant Act, when the tenancy is less than month-to-
month, the landlord or tenant may terminate the tenancy provided the
landlord or tenant gives to the other a written notice served as
provided in subsection E of this section at least seven (7) days
before the date upon which the termination is to become effective.
C. Unless earlier terminated under the provisions of the
Oklahoma Residential Landlord and Tenant Act or unless otherwise
agreed upon, a tenancy for a definite term expires on the ending
date thereof without notice.
D. If the tenant remains in possession without the landlord's
consent after the expiration of the term of the rental agreement or
its termination under the Oklahoma Residential Landlord and Tenant
Act, the landlord may immediately bring an action for possession and
damages. If the tenant's holdover is willful and not in good faith
the landlord may also recover an amount not more than twice the
average monthly rental, computed and prorated on a daily basis, for
each month or portion thereof that the tenant remains in possession.
If the landlord consents to the tenant's continued occupancy, a
month-to-month tenancy is thus created, unless the parties otherwise
