Re: eviction
The landlord must give you a written 3-day notice. If you do not pay the amount due within the 3 days, he must file an eviction action in the county court. You must then be served with that Complaint and given an opportunity to respond in writing. It generally takes several weeks before the landlord actually gets a court order to put you out. Then the sheriff's office will serve that on you and put you out if you do not move.
