Re: eviction
Of course the landlord wants you to pay the back rent that is past due and owing and then move out. Wouldn't you do the same thing if you were the landlord? If you were served with an eviction complaint, and you have not defended it, you probably only have a few days before a writ of possession is issued and the sheriff comes knocking at your door to get your personal property out and assist the landlord in changing the door lock. You should find a new place to live immediately. Good luck.
