In sum, beginning with § 45-1651 of the 1980 Rental Housing Act, as construed in Cooley, and continuing through § 45-2551 of the 1985 Act, which contains the same "correct or vacate" language, the District's law has erased the separately required notice to quit for all cases in which § 45-2551 applies. With that erasure, therefore, the successive Rental Housing Acts have also eliminated the § 45-1402 timing provision, which now applies only when a notice to quit as such, not a notice to cure or vacate, may still be used (e.g., when a tenant elects to terminate a month-to-month tenancy).
