    Default Subtenant's Obligation to Give Notice when Moving Out

    My question involves landlord-tenant law in the State of: Oregon

    I am the only person on the rental agreement at my current house, and am renting out the other two rooms to roommates. This has been an informal, verbal arrangement (fairly negligent landlord who doesn't care who lives here as long as the rent gets paid, and no formal contract between myself and the roommates).

    One of them is moving out, and didn't give notice of intent to leave until 1/3 of the way into the month - leaving the other roommate and I around 3 weeks to either fill the room or figure out how to pay the rent on the house in the next month.

    Is the roommate who is leaving obligated to give 30 days notice (and so therefore responsible for 1/3 of the rent on the room for next month)?

    Per statute,

    If a tenancy is a month-to-month tenancy:

    (a) At any time during the tenancy, the tenant may terminate the tenancy by giving the landlord notice in writing not less than 30 days prior to the date designated in the notice for the termination of the tenancy.

    (b) At any time during the first year of occupancy, the landlord may terminate the tenancy by giving the tenant notice in writing not less than 30 days prior to the date designated in the notice for the termination of the tenancy.

    (c) At any time after the first year of occupancy, the landlord may terminate the tenancy by giving the tenant notice in writing not less than 60 days prior to the date designated in the notice for the termination of the tenancy.
