Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in Maryland
Evictions
Currently, I owe rent for the apartment I live in. I am aware that I am delinquent and have acknowledged that to my rental office. I have not abandoned the place. Problem is they continuously come to my place threatening to evict me. Today they came with P.G. police My question is can I be evicted without going to court where a judge determines the eviction date? Can they legally come to my place and threaten me? It is embarrasing and to the point I feel harrassed. Please advise me.

Re: Evictions
You cannot be evicted unless this has been decided in court. Service of process is through mail for this type of matter.
If you are being disturbed in your home then you may take action on a number of issues. Contact an attorney.
