When Do You File an Eviction?
In Texas, a landlord may file an eviction case when:
- rent has not been paid
- the tenant violated lease terms
- the lease has expired
- the tenant refuses to leave the property
Eviction cases are typically filed in Justice of the Peace court.
Before Filing
Texas law usually requires landlords to first deliver a Notice to Vacate to the tenant.
If the tenant does not leave by the deadline, you can file an eviction case with the court.
