More details to this question:
I am staying as a tenant in Michigan since 4/25/2014. There is no contract or agreement signed between the landlord and I. The landlord took $220 rent from (4/25/2014 - 5/9/2014) and $350 security deposit from me, both by cheque. Yesterday, he asked me to vacate the room within 7 days. I want to know what is the minimum notice to quit in days he needs to give me in writing or verbally. What should I do if the landlord tries to remove my luggage from the house after 7 days?

Without knowing all the details, the general rule for month-to-month tenants is 30 days written notice to terminate tenancy. Verbal notice does not count in most circumstances.
