Re: Forclosure
If she does not move out within the period specified in a written notice, then the bank may bring a lawsuit against her, called an unlawful detainer suit. She must file an answer to the lawsuit with the court within 5 days after being served. Then a trial will be set. In the interim, she might be able to negotiate for more time or payment to move out before a lawsuit is necessary.
