FAQ
Gather Necessary Information. Collect all pertinent information related to your eviction. This includes your lease agreement, documentation of rent payments, communication with the landlord, and any other relevant records. The more evidence you have to support your case, the stronger your letter will be.
If you have been personally served NOTICE of eviction (meaning a case has been filed against you with the court), you can PREVENT receiving an ORDER of eviction by contacting the landlord and paying your rent in full to the landlord at any time PRIOR to the court date, and then ask for him to withdraw the motion.
The court may issue the writ on the same day or within a few days, depending on the county.
To respond to the eviction case, you start with filling out an Answer or other response forms. Then, you file them with the court. This gives you the chance to tell the judge if there are any legal reasons your landlord can't evict you and tell your side of the story at a court trial.
You have the right to file a written answer explaining to the court why you should not be evicted. If you don't have a lawyer yet, you can file an answer on your own. Explain your situation and what you are doing to try and find help. Describe what your landlord has or hasn't done to get rental assistance funds.
The Tenant Protection Ordinance (“TPO”) provides tenants legal recourse if they are harassed by the property owner. The TPO is meant to deter harassment by property owners. The TPO provides civil remedies for violations.
If your tenant won't fix the problem or move out, you'll have to go through the court to get an order for them to move out. The eviction process can take 30 - 45 days, or longer. The time starts from when you have eviction court forms delivered to your tenant to the time they must move out.
Here are the steps you can take to contest the eviction: Arm yourself with solid evidence and legal help. Contest the eviction in court. To remove a false eviction from your public record, you can petition the court or file an appeal. Gather evidence that proves eviction information is incorrect or outdated.
