Every situation is different and governed by the rules applicable in that setting.

There is no hard and fast rule, but generally the rule is "reasonable notice." Notice from the night before has been considered reasonable in some contexts, 2 weeks notice has been considered unreasonable in others. It just depends on the circumstances.

Please feel to give us a call if you want to talk.
