A landlord can give a tenant a handwritten notice requesting that he vacate the property. "Eviction" is a legal process, requiring the landlord to go to court, get permission to service notice to evict and ultimately involve the sheriff if necessary.

This depends on jurisdiction, but generally a landlord has to serve a demand for rent, which may be informal and handwritten. After that, they need to serve a Notice to Quit, and a formal Eviction Notice which must be served through the courts, and often by a sheriff.

Yes. Eviction notices can be hand written. The only requirement is that the terms within the notice are legal and that you have sufficient notice.

It can either be handwritten or typed but it has to meet the necessary legal requirements to be valid. These guidelines vary among jurisdictions.
