No one here has the paperwork, and you chose to not say specifically what it says ("said something about doing something" is meaningless). If you don't pay the rent, and the landlord takes you to court, the ultimate resolution is that you get evicted and owe past rent, fees and damages.
You left out details needed to answer but if the case is in court, a landlord can evict you. put your belongings on the street, and get a judgment for rent as well, in just days, so I'd suggest you get a U-Haul this weekend and move your things before they are on the street. No one here can tell you the deadlines since you failed to tell them to us, but they are almost certainly very near.
You may have the right to stop the dispossessory action by paying all of the amounts due. Otherwise, you will ultimate lose because you failed to pay rent.
