California's Tenant Protection Act The only lawful way to evict a tenant is to file lawsuit and wait for the court to order the Sheriff or Marshal to carry out the eviction. Landlords cannot change the locks, shut off power, or remove personal property in order to force a tenant out of their home.
You must have a Writ of Possession issued by the clerk, and then you can have the Sheriff's Department do the lock-out. A sheriff will give the tenant notice that they have five (5) days to vacate the premises. Even though you have a court order, you cannot evict the tenant yourself.
California passed a new landlord-tenant law that will provide additional protections for renters around just cause evictions. The law took effect on April 1, 2024, and requires landlords to have just cause to terminate tenancy after a California tenant has been placed in the unit for 12 months.
The Public Case Access System provides you with the ability to search for cases by name, case number, or filing date. In Civil and Probate cases, you are able to view information regarding case participants, events, and documents (where applicable).
To start the eviction case, fill out 4 court forms: Summons - Unlawful Detainer-Eviction (form SUM-130) Complaint - Unlawful Detainer (form UD-100) Plaintiff's Mandatory Cover Sheet and Supplemental Allegations – Unlawful Detainer (form UD-101)
A landlord uses a 30-day Notice to Quit (move out) to end a month-to-month tenancy if the tenant has been renting for less than 1 year. A landlord uses a 60-day Notice to Quit if their tenant has been renting for 1 year or more. In many cases, landlords can't cancel a month-to-month tenancy for just any reason.
If you lose your eviction case, you need to move out (at the latest) 5 days after the sheriff posts a Notice to Vacate on your door.
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. Choose any box, below, to learn more about the eviction process and get step-by-step instructions.
