Re: lease agreements & evictions
You do not have to vacate until/unless your landlord goes to court to evict you.
You would have to be served and appear in court and you would ask the Judge to give you until November 1st.
Most likely if she goes to court it will not be until after October 1st (when you do not vacate)and you won't get into court for at least another 8-10 days (after service) bringing you to mid October at the earliest. The Judge will likely give you the extra 2 wks to vacate.
