A friend (yeah, yeah, you think it's me, but really, a friend who goes to church with me) received a 10 day notice to move this morning, 4/12/06. It says she has 10 days to pay, or be out by April 30th. How long does she actually have to stay there, and what can she do to protect her & her children from being out on the street with no where to go?

If your friend hasn't paid the rent within the 10 day time period, then the landlord's next step is to file a lawsuit for eviction.  A court date will be assigned, and if your friend hasn't paid by the day of court the judge will give a judgment for possession to the landlord.  Then the landlord has to send the judgment to the sheriff.  The sheriff will post a notice on your friend's door advising of when the eviction will be performed.  If she hasn't paid the rent by that date, then the sheriff will come out to the property and stand by while the landlord has the locks changed and her property removed.  The time period for all of this can be anywhere from 2 weeks to 2 months from the expiration of her 10 day notice, depending on when the landlord files the lawsuit and how long the wait time is at the court.

Totally something you have to pray about. God will give you the answer. I have a friend in the methodist church and with some of the things going on, he wanted to leave. He feels God wants him to stay and try to change things.\nSo...pray about it.

The general rule is 30 days for normal notice in a month to month tenancy or at the end of a lease.  However, as your tenant seems to be in violation of her lease, most states provide for notice of 3 - 7 days for an eviction for cause.  \n\nDepending on the state, and the speed with which the courts act, eviction may take anywhere from 30 - 90 days.  Of course you could get lucky and she'll move out within the initial notice period.  \n\nWhatever you do, do NOT attempt a self-help eviction or lock out the tenant.  You'll leave yourself open to civil liability and possibly criminal charges in some jursidictions.\n\nConsult an attorney in your area for advice specific to your jurisdiction and situation.

check out this web link \nwww.thelandlordacademy.com. \n\nYou have not received any such notice as of yet as you had stated ....no less than 5 days which would be Dec. 3. They gave a 30 day notice as to the rent increase, although, looks like they would also give you the option to move out by Dec 8 with out penalty. But do not expect them to let you stay for the 750.00.

you have rights...you should know that...but not in the respect where church on sunday is concerned.  Apparently you were not a church goer then. perhaps corporation is looking at this with you in a totally different manner. if you want to do something about it go above the persons head who told you, you have to work it one sunday a month.

If your roommate gave you a 30 day notice 10/22 she is still responsible for rent thru 11/22. She is still considered a tenant until the 22 you can be nice and pro rate the rent for the 22 days.  Please do not throw her stuff to the curb, you would be responsible for it if it went to court.  Good Luck KG

If I were in your shoes I would just get to July 1 and then tell him in writting that you will be moving Aug 1.  Lease or not in most areas you must be give a thirty day eviction notice if he intends to kick you out.  So with 45 days to go just get to July 1 then you are in a thiry day window.

You leave...and quickly.  Do not hesitate.  Don't feel pressured into giving any explanations or talking to anyone there about your decision...they will only be harrassing you or possibly attempt to cover up for this person they're calling "pastor".  If necessary, seek legal counsel.  Talk to someone outside of the situation so at least someone else is aware of what is going on.

First off I need to know what state we are in. Laws vary and every ruling would be different due to this facto! I live in Texas, so I will tell you our law. Jack would go into court and file suit on Mary. In the state of Texas there is no subletting clause. So Mary has broken her lease the minute she sublets to Christian. So Christian and Paul and Pete and Johnny are no common factors in this suit. Mary will be responsible for all monies due and any damages. Plus forfeits any deposits she rendered toward these charges. Total liability is on Mary. Mary has no recourse after she is sued to go back on any of said sub-letters. The orginial lease is the only binding lease. In the state of Texas there is no verbal contract.

The law's the law even if it doesn't sound or seem right.  The landlord has to wait out the 15days notice.  If they don't move, they can file paper with the court and have the cops come and take care of that.

Having a real estate liscence and knowing the landlord tenant laws considering my family's business is in rental properties, I assure you that for being two days late it will be impossible for the landlord to evict you... On the 5th she can give you a 7Day note which will tell you that you have seven days to pay in full or she will start court proceedings, and those last usually two weeks after that.  It is impossible for a lnadlord to evict a tenant within two days.  I've had to evict people before for not paying rent at all, and with no intentions of paying it and it took til the 26th of that month before the authorities will come to evict.  This I can guarantee, because I've done evictions in FL, IL, AZ, NM, and TX... Impossible to go through the court for a proper eviction in less than two weeks, and the court will always give you a chance to pay it and stay

I just went through a similar move a year ago... We have 3 children  all elementary school aged. Try to scope out some of the local parks and hang outs before you go and tell them how cool they sound, try to take them there within the first week of the move. I don't know if you know anyone in that area or not, but we did so, I had her give out invitations to a welcome new friends party....talk to your kids and listen to them... our "big" adjustment period was over within a month. Good Luck.

Do you have a friend that could stay there on the day that she is moving out?  If so, ask them.  Instruct them what is yours, and if your roommate starts taking things that are not her, instruct this friend to call the police and have her arrested.\n\nGood luck

Call the Department of Health. The landlord has probably broken the lease and you can move with your deposit. I would have already moved if it's been since October. That is BS! I have kids mysself and I would not put up with that. I had a mold problem and I told the landlord I can move out because he did not provide aduquite quarters for my family, and I had to pay rent for a bathroom that I didn't even use. Good luck!

Smartest thing to do is make a contract/statement up stating person has lived there so n so months "rent free" (your choice or not?)and has no job wanted to do your best to help said person on their feet, all has failed, now are giving the person X ammount of days to get out,or contribute. Have that person sign it, with your signature as well. wouldnt hurt to give that person a copy as well you keep the original! \nFor future references its best to have "Everything in WRITING" And keep as many expense reciepts as well.

I would hire an attorney to handle filing a Summons and Complaint.  It will require they come to court.  They can be given the option of paying or getting out.  If the court grants the eviction, and they do not move, the police or sheriff shows up and removes their belongings.  You need to take the proper steps to get this resolved.  If not, by the time you do, the court won't take it all that seriously since you've been allowing it to happen.

Give them a three week notice for now, and if you find out you will have to leave a little sooner than that, let them know right away! Thats about as fair as it can get without losing a paycheck!
