Here's a link to some general information that I think you will find to be of help:  https://real-estate-law.freeadvice.com/landlord_tenant/eviction-notice-process.htm

After reading, you can contact the housing court nearest you and they will be able to give you the specific information that you need or at least guide you in getting it.  The clerks there are very knowledgeable.  Additionally, many law schools have legal clinics that handle just this sort of thing.

Best of luck.
