FAQ
To start a case, you must file a complaint with the court. In that complaint, you can ask for an eviction order. You must file your complaint no more than 60 days after the end date listed in your notice to the tenant. You will be the plaintiff and the tenant will be the defendant.
Your landlord can end the let at any time by serving a written 'notice to quit'. The notice period will depend on the tenancy or agreement, but is often at least 4 weeks.
Under Vermont state law if a landlord is terminating a tenancy for none of the reasons explained above or for no given reason (called a termination for no cause in legal language), and the tenant is renting by the month, the tenant is entitled to at least 60 days written notice, or 21 days written notice if renting
When the tenancy is month-to-month, the tenant must give the landlord 15 days' notice before the end of any monthly period. (In Miami, the tenant must give the landlord 30 days' notice before the end of the monthly period).
In Colorado, evictions are sometimes referred to as forcible entry & detainer (FED). Before you can file for eviction, you must generally provide 10 days' notice (increased from 3 days prior) for tenants to correct a deficiency or leave the property, except in certain circumstances.
