Evictions
|
The TPA (“Tenant Protection Act”) was designed to process evictions more quickly than the previous legislation. Tenants must be aware that if they find out the landlord is starting the process to evict, tenants must act quickly to protect their rental homes.
There is a process for evictions and there still must be valid reasons for landlord to legally evict a tenant.
The TPA clearly states that a landlord cannot evict you from your rental apartment or house, unless the Tribunal has authorized the eviction. Such evictions are carried out by the Sheriff’s office. You cannot lawfully be evicted directly by the landlord.
