Eviction is the process by which a landlord obtains possession of the rental property by entering a lawsuit against the tenant and receiving a judgment from the court directing the tenant to
leave the property and pay back any rent, pay any damage claims and pay the costs of the court process.
If your landlord is trying to evict you, you will be notified of this action and summoned to appear in court to address the charges. You should be prepared to offer a defense.
Section 55-248.31 of the Act outlines steps that must be taken by the landlord in the eviction process.
