Commence the summary proceeding after 30 days -- Nov. 1, 2001.
At the same time, commence a civil action for damages to the property in either civil or district court.

You can sue for damages to the property. I would document everything & if possible take photos.
You can also file for a summary proceeding after 30 days.
I advice you to retain an attorney as soon as possible.
