Tenant eviction, more commonly just known as eviction, is the process by which a tenant is evicted from a lease. To begin a tenant eviction, the tenant must have done something in violation of the lease or the lease should have ended. After a tenant wrongdoing is identified, the landlord can advance the case by providing the tenant with a notice of at least 3 days. If the period of notice runs out, the tenant eviction is taken to court, where it will then be either validated or invalidated by a judge. As a tenant, the only possible means of avoiding tenant eviction after receiving notice is to fulfill the violation(s) and then attempt negotiation with the landlord. Other than paying the rent or repairing damages, the tenant may also be able to file a counter-claim against the violation that occurred. But as long as the violation remains, the landlord has a legal cause for tenant eviction an the court will probably not rule in the tenant's favor.
