A Delaware Immediate Notice to Quit is reserved for those lease violations by a tenant that make it necessary to lawfully terminate tenancy without delay due to irreparable harm. While the law may allow for a landlord to expect the tenant to move out within a few hours, this notice actually allows the tenant 24 hours to surrender possession and remove their personal belongings.
