Only the deeded property owner can sign and file an eviction complaint without an attorney. All other eviction complaints must be signed and filed by an attorney on behalf of an owner or property management company. If you have questions about evicting a roommate please contact an attorney or the Self Help Resource Center.
This process will depend on the postal office, or the Bailiff. Usually the hearings will be scheduled fourteen to twenty-one days from the filing date.
