Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in Virginia

Re: breach of lease/rental property

No, but if you failed to comply with the terms of your probation(including the payment of any fees and costs imposed at the time of sentencing)without good reason, it's possible that any suspended jail time could later be imposed, but I doubt that any such imposition would occur under the facts which you've described.

Re: breach of lease/rental property

As the suit is civil in nature the probably the court will not send you in jail. But if the other side filed a criminal suit regarding breach of trust then the court may send jail if the amount is due.

Re: breach of lease/rental property

I need to amend my previous answer as I previously misunderstood the import of your question which I had taken to involve a criminal matter.

The answer is, no, most definitely, you will not be put in jail for failing to pay the balance owed under your lease under the circumstances which you've described. At most, the court will enter a civil judgment against you for the amounts claimed by the landlord and it will be up to him or her(your judgment creditor) to figure out how to collect it.
