FILING
AN EVICTION - Kentucky
Remember that withholding your rent can be
considered nonpayment and may subject you to
eviction. If you fail to pay rent on time or break
any rules of the landlord or provision of the lease,
the Kentucky landlord can go to court and may get an
eviction notice.
|
|
The landlord must inform you first of this
intention. If you receive an eviction notice,
consult an attorney immediately. You may go to court
and explain your situation. If you have not lived up
to the lease and/or have not paid your rent on time,
you probably will not be allowed to remain in the
apartment/house. The landlord cannot, however,
remove your possessions without a court order.
|
Kentucky courts are able to stop an eviction (if
your rent is $2400 per month or less) for up to
three months or longer if requested by the service
member whose ability to pay rent has been materially
affected by the active duty service.
