Depends on what you mean by 'thrown out'...did you violate the lease? Tenants have 7 days to correct or quit for nonpayment. But if they pay between day 7 and a court date, then it goes away. Though, tenants can only do that 3 times in a calendar year, legally in the state. For other lease violations that aren't safety related, it's a 30 day cure or quit. If you're month to month, either the tenant or the landlord can give a 30 day notice to vacate. If the landlord is being abusive and constantly threatening, then call the police.
