So here is the deal. I am reanting ahouse from this guy and we had a verbal agreement that I would give him the full depoist of 2700 once I got my my taxes back. Well that all went to hell and needless to say I still haven't recieved my tax refund and I have been in the house for over a month now. So far I have only been able to give him $600 because I was really counting on that money for all of my bills......
Any Who....
He has told me that if I don't give him at least 1200 by 3pm tomorrow (3/16/07) that he will serve me with a 3 day notice.
Once he does that how long will I have to move?
Can he change the locks when I am not their?

Yes, he can serve you with a cure or quit claim, which is your "3 day notice", then begin the eviction process if you do not pay. Florida does recognize verbal agreements. It depends on the agreement, whether you were going to be a yearly tenant or on a month to month basis on how long you have to move.
No, he cannot change the locks. Please review the florida landlord/tenant statutes for full details on what a landlord can and cannot do. You can google these easily.

The only guy I know that's been able to pull the strings like that in WPB is Ray Flow - tons of rental properties and I saw him kick out a few people with a 3-day notice, so sorry but no, it's not impossible.
I believe your landlord would have to go in front of a judge to request a 3-day eviction notice. Don't know if he can get a judge to hear him with such little notice, but if it's someone with a lot of properties and frequent evictions, he may have a standing weekly appointment with someone. If he gives you one, see if you can immediately request a hearing in front of the same judge to plead your case.
Good luck!!!

I wish we lived in a society the place gun possession grow to be dazzling in that crime grow to be a uncommon occurence and the government grow to be no longer something to concern. nicely we are neither a variety of. regrettably gun possession is a sturdy theory in maximum, and a necessity in different, aspects of our u . s . a .. I save on the line each and all the time. i comprehend first hand that the police are on no account there once you pick them. you acquire approximately 3-5 minutes minimum to sit down down and play patty cake with the criminal till now help arrives. it fairly is a jungle obtainable and that's as much as you to preserve you and yours.

You have a verbal rental agreement, and you told him that you'd give him "x" amount when you got it? You have legal rights, and he can't just give you 3 days notice.
