Re: How many days after eviction notice given
There are a number of other factors that are involved here. How far along in the eviction process are you? If you just received the initial ejectment rule, then you have five days to respond. You can request a hearing before the magistrate. If the person who received it was not 18 years or older, then, you may object to the proceedings based upon insufficiency of process. Also, why are you behind on rent?
