They don't have to take you to court. They should have given you at least a 30 day notice so that you could find a place to stay until they get it done.

If you have a lease the landlord can't do that. Once the lease is up he can give you 30 days notice to vacate.
If you do not have a lease the landlord must give you 30 days notice, normally from the next rent-due date, and you must vacate by then. If your landlord just gave you notice the 30 days starts on Sept 1st when the next rent payment is due so you have at least until October 1st to vacate.
If you don't vacate at the end of the notice period the landlord can then start eviction proceedings. But in any case the landlord can't just walk up and say, "I need you out next week."

The first call is to your landlord and confront him, the second call is to the city attorney. The landlord is required to honor the lease agreement. If you are month to month he has to give you at least 30 days to move out. If he has already served you notice and you ignored it, you are stuck.

YOU HAVE THE RIGHTS TO FAIR NOTICE UNDER ANY TENANCY AGREEMENT
however if the building has been demed unsafe then minimal notice is all thats required,
if it is for commercial or decorative purposses he is legally bound to give you fair and proper warning,
contact your local c.a.b quickly for the full facts,
you could also ask him does he have any alternative properties available
good luck

He is the landlord and I dont think there is much you can do. I'm sorry. Consult a solicitor. Good luck. All the best.
