The Utah 3-day notice to vacate for a criminal nuisance is a document delivered to a tenant of a residential rental property that has created a criminal nuisance on the premises indicating that they must move out in three (3) days or less. A criminal nuisance is the most severe infraction a tenant can commit, examples of which include manufacturing or dealing illegal drugs, committing a felony, illegal gambling operations, committing an act that threatens the health and safety of another individual on the property, or any other violent crime. There is no recourse for the tenant, they are required to leave the property within the notice period or they will be unlawfully detaining the premises.
