In legal terms, the definition of the term written notice can vary from state to state and even within different areas of law within one state.

An example of a State law defining written notice can be found in Virginia's Landlord Tenant Act Va. Code Ann. § 55-248.6 which states:

"Written notice" means notice . . . . including any representation of words, letters, symbols, numbers, or figures, whether printed in or inscribed on a tangible medium or stored in an electronic form or other medium, retrievable in a perceivable form, and regardless of whether an electronic signature is affixed. The landlord may, in accordance with a written agreement, delegate to a managing agent or other third party the responsibility of providing any written notice required by this chapter."

-------------------------------

In general terms, "prior written notice" means someone is placed on notice of an intention of another to act (or not act) by putting it in writing, getting it to the person or company to be notified, and ensuring that they receive it before the action occurs.
