Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
If someone is wrongfully evicted in California, the tenant could receive compensation for actual losses, such as temporary housing costs, and punitive damages. Punitive damages can be as much as $100 per day, with a minimum of $250 for each violation.
A new eviction law in California, called “No Fault, Just Cause,” makes it tougher for landlords to evict tenants. Presently, a landlord can evict if they or their family plan to move in. However, starting April 1, the landlord or their family must move in within 90 days and stay for at least a year.
In California, it’s against the law for landlords to retaliate against tenants. This includes things like raising rent, reducing services, or trying to evict tenants because they exercised their rights, like reporting housing code issues or joining tenant groups.
After losing an eviction case in California, you must leave within 5 days of the sheriff posting a Notice to Vacate on your door. If you require extra time, you can request a stay of execution from the court.
To avoid wrongful eviction, know and stand up for your tenant rights. Pay rent promptly, adhere to your lease terms, and keep open communication with your landlord. If issues arise, document them and consider seeking advice from a lawyer.
