Ok so recently i got layed off from my job. Due to this i was not able to pay my rent for the apartment. I now have to go to court for it. Something about the petition of writ of restitution. what usually happens am i going to get kicked out? I talk to the manager of the apartments but she couldnt help me. I just got a good job again and will be able to pay the rent in two weeks but will it matter? I really dont want to be kicked out i just ran into some financial diffuclty due to losing my job. All my bills fell behind shoot i didnt even have anough money to eat i was onl eating once a day sometimes every other day? Will the court understand?

You got through the proceedure answering a few questions just like u c on tv and all. Wait for verdict etc then take it from there. Goin for not paying rent will get you some fine or whatever. Unless an agreement can be reached.

If the initial 30 day notice did not say anything about non-payment then you are NOT technically being evicted for non-payment. You would only be correct if the initial notice had stated something about the late rent. Also, that type of notice is usually only a 3 day notice. If you do not have a lease a landlord does not have to have a reason to give 30 days notice. There is there is nothing you can do about this. The only way around this is if you have a lease. Since she just did a straight 30 day I'm assuming this is not the case. A landlord cannot evict you to sell if you have a lease.

If you have a good job and can show that you'll be able to get your rent current in two weeks, the court might give you that much time. They'll enter a judgement for the amount owed for the landlord, but if you get lucky you might not get evicted.
If you have some kind of paperwork showing that you now have a job and what you are making, take it with you to the hearing.
Good luck.

Yes the judge should understand. A lot depends on your past. Ask the manager who you need to talk to. Maybe you can take care of this before you go to court. Which means you won't have to take off from your new job! Plus it show them you are trying to correct the problem.
Some places will have you talk to their lawyer?!?
Good Luck.
