Re: eviction of a disabled
After a preliminary review of the Civil Code, I did not find any provisions extending disabled persons any extraordinary rights in an unlawful detainer action. That is not to say, that a meritless civil suit in small claims court may be filed by the tenant. As a courtesy to her, you may grant her 60 days notice as opposed to the statutory 30 days notice. If she does not voluntarly move after the 60 days, then file an unlawful detainer action.
