Re: locked out
I am assuming that you have already been to court for an unlawful detainer (eviction) hearing, and that you lost. Again,assuming that as correct, and you are appealing, the landlord can lock you out. The only recourse is to wait for the appeal to be heard, and if you win, the court will assess damages in your favor. Good luck.
