20-27 IN RE: CLERK OF COURT - CARES ACT INFORMATION SHEET FOR RESIDENTIAL EVICTION CASES - ORDERED 5/26/2020 BY LISA DAVIDSON
EXCERPT: ” Section 4024 of the federal Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”), Public Law No. 116-136, temporarily prohibits landlords from initiating a legal action to evict a tenant from a residential dwelling covered under the CARES Act for nonpayment of rent. Such filings are prohibited from March 27, 2020, through July 25, 2020. Further, the CARES Act prohibits landlords from requiring tenants occupying a residential dwelling covered under the CARES Act to vacate the premises without first providing 30 days’ notice. The CARES Act prevents landlords from providing such notice until after July 25, 2020. Ensuring compliance with the CARES Act’s restrictions on residential evictions requires litigants to provide information about the nature of the subject premises to the Court. (Open AO for more information.)”
