RESOURCES IN ENGLISH (Si está mirando desde su teléfono, para español vea abajo)

There have been a series of executive orders, court directives, and legislative changes. What does it all mean for evictions, new case filings, court closures and pre-COVID cases?

  • Download this one-pager here to learn about the current eviction moratorium that is in effect until October 1, 2020.

UPDATE ON HOUSING MORATORIUMS AS OF AUGUST 12, 2020

There are new directives today stating that no eviction can take place before October 1, 2020.  Those evictions would be only in cases where there was an order from court and/or a warrant of eviction prior to March 17, 2020.  Before that eviction can be carried out, a landlord must serve a motion on the tenant, and the case must be conferenced in front of a judge.

For the most part, Housing Court cases commenced after March 17, 2020 are not moving forward.

Please remember to speak with an attorney about any specific questions about your case!

RECURSOS EN ESPAÑOL

Se han producido una serie de órdenes ejecutivas, directivas de la corte, y cambios legislativos. ¿Qué significa todo esto para los desahucios, nuevos casos presentados, cierres de cortes y casos pre-COVID?

  • Descargue este recurso aquí para aprender más sobre la moratoria de desalojo que está en efecto hasta el 1 de octubre, 2020.

ACTUALIZACIÓN SOBRE LAS MORATORIAS DE DESALOJOS A PARTIR DE AGOSTO 7, 2020.

Hay dos directivas nuevas hoy declarando que ningún desalojo se puede cumplir antes del 1 de octubre, 2020.  Estos desalojos serían solamente en casos en que había una orden de la corte y/o una orden de desalojo antes del 17 de marzo, 2020.  Antes de que se cumpla el desalojo, el casero le tiene que entregar una moción al inquilino y tiene que haber una conferencia ante un juez.

Por lo general, los casos comenzados en la Corte de Vivienda después del 17 de marzo, 2020 no están siguiendo adelante. 

Por favor recuerde que si tienen preguntas sobre su caso, comuníquese con su abogadx.
