Utah Subletting & assignment
Can a tenant sublet an apartment in Utah?
Under Utah Code § 78B-6-802(1)(d), a renter who assigns or sublets the premises contrary to the covenants of the lease is in unlawful detainer after service of a three calendar days' notice to quit. Utah's statute does not otherwise require landlord consent; the lease controls.
