Re: eviction
I presume your lease has provisions regarding eviction from the property that will control in your situation. I suspect that he may not kick you out immediately. If you refuse to leave, he will have to seek an order from a judge. Depending on how swift your county's docket moves, it may take as long as 30-60 days to get through the judicial process.
