I am a landlord, I am renting to a mother of four who I have tried to work with many times. I gave her an eviction notice at the beginning on August, because she has not paid rent since May.

Normally, the court allows sometime upon passing the eviction orders. The aggrieved party, either vacate the premises or file an appeal to get the order stayed during that period.

after going thru all the proper procedures for eviction (30 day notice, 60 day notice, 90 day.. whatever the law says in your area.. but if you've done all that and have an actual court order, the police can get involved. You will own all the personal belongs in the house and can do whatever you need to do to recoup some of your losses. change the locks and get a restraining order.

a coupla weeks....here is how it works..first you give her proper written notice at least 1 month to vacate...a month means from the very first day of a new month to the last..be safe and make it 31 days.....on the first of the month when she doesn't move take a hundred and fifty bucks to the court house and file an unlawful detainer against her and her rats...give an adult guy fifty bucks to serve the court papers......in about ten days you will go before a judge .you have to prove in court that you gave her proper written notice.....if you win she is evicted but it is only a word and at this point nobody can make her leave if she doesn't want to....now you take your court order of eviction to the county sheriff...you will probably have to pay him about a hundred and fifty bucks....he will speak to your tenant and tell her to be out in three days or he will physically remove them.......in three days if they are still there and they are not in the process of moving he willl?????that is the law and the process but i have never heard of anybody actually being physically removed by a sheriff for eviction. but that is what they are supposed to do.. now lets go back to your question. you state you gave her an eviction notice but i don't think you did...you can only get an eviction by going to court. you are misusing the term.....you asked them to leave or pay up but they seem to know as little as i do but we both know way more than you...being a landlord is a b-itch but that mortgage payment sure was nice. i should stop here be cause you are not going to pay me for knowing more than every lawyer but her goes....search landlord/tenants rights and responsibilities for your state and look it up for yourself........

By law she only has 30 days from the time she has recieved the eviction notice. It also depends on what state youre in look up the landlord tenant hotline in yahoo search for the state you live in. They have a list of laws and guidelines.

You have a battle on your hands. Tenant laws are different in each state, so I suggest you find out what you have to do to get this family out of your complex. You have grounds, but you are going to have to take it to court. If you are in the U.S. try the source site I've listed...Good luck. It CAN be done, and an eviction does go on a person's credit report. But it will take some time and effort on your part.

It will be up to the court to set how long. Some states have it in rental laws, others it is only by the judge. If she is ordered by the court to vacate and does not she will find a new place to live very fast....She will be found in Contempt of Court and forcibly removed by law enforcement officers, who may very well give her a new home at the county jail.

depends on wether she pays you by the week or by the month.
also if she fights it it could take 30 days to go to court but once its been to court they can actually set them out that same day but there will have to be a marshall there. In some cases it could toala up to 60 days unless its pay by the week that could last 7 - 37 days. this is for the atl area as laws probaly differ in your area.
when we would do evictions the marshall would go to the house serve papers with us and our workers immed. set their stuff outside, it was illegal for us to keep their belongings again check local laws.

I feel bad for all involved. You need your money, and she evidently has no where to go. Tough situation. The eviction notice should say how long she has to leave, but it up to you to have it enforced. If she isn't out by the date specified, call the police

Sounds like she's going to stay until you get the Sheriff to go to the door and lead her and the kids out. At the end of sixty days I would call the Sheriff and ask them to go and do just that.

It depends on where you are. For instance, in San Francisco, it is nearly impossible to evict someone. You need to find local legal counsel to help you, someone with expertise in the area - sorry, but that's the best way.
