Eviction notices for other grounds (lease violation, no-fault) in Maryland

To evict before the lease ends for a breach (where the lease allows it), the landlord must first give 30 days' written notice of the violation, or 14 days' notice if the tenant's behavior shows a clear and imminent danger of serious harm. Code text: "The landlord has given the tenant 30 days' written notice that the tenant is in violation of the lease and the landlord desires to repossess the leased premises."
