Dakota State University: Can a month-to-month tenant reject a landlord’s proposed rent or condition change?

DIRECT ANSWER

Retained SD Attorney General educational guidance,not a new statutory verification. Its stale two-week deposit-return statement is excluded; current retained §43-32-24 controls that timing. Covered private residential rental only; actual agreement and law govern.

The AG guide describes30 days’ notice for a landlord’s modification. It says the tenant may instead end the tenancy on the first day of the next month by notifying the landlord within15 days after receiving the modification notice. Apply that described option to the actual periodic agreement.
