After the three days expire on the three day notice, the landlord has to file an unlawful detainer action, which will take at least several weeks to be set. Then she has to get a judgment and have the sheriff enforce it. So you will have at least a month and maybe two before you are forced to leave. She can not just change the locks.

If your lease is up you must leave on the last day of the term lease. If you stay, you are a holdover and subject to eviction. You will be given the 3 day notice to quit and then be served with eviction papers after that.

When a lease expires and the tenant is still in residence it becomes a month to month tenancy and the rules for notice must be observed. You must be given a 30 or 60 day notice depending upon how long you have lived there. She can not change the locks on the 3 days notice. You should consult a real estate attorney.
