To begin the eviction process against a tenant, there must have been a breach of the lease. Usually, this takes the form of a failure to pay rent. The lease agreement will set out how much the monthly rental amount is and when it is due. Other breaches of the lease that can result in eviction could include a failure to pay utility charges; having an unauthorized occupant; having unauthorized pets; etc. These violations would generally require the posting of a three day notice.
In other cases a 30 day notice is require by law. These involve a tenant's failure to uphold his obligations under Ohio Revised Code section 5321.04.

In the failure to pay rent example, a landlord would post a three day notice. In Ohio, the landlord has the option of whether to accept the rent after the notice has been posted. If the landlord accepts the rent, the landlord cannot proceed with an eviction against the tenant. The landlord may choose not to accept the rent and proceed with an eviction against the tenant. It is up to the landlord in Ohio.
