About the program
This free and easy program will ask you questions and make papers for a residential licensee holdover petition or notice to quit to start a licensee holdover case in court. You will also get instructions that tell you what to do next.
You can use this program if:
- You do not have a lawyer, and
- The premises is unregulated housing, and
- The premises is not owned by a corporation or voluntary association, and
- You are the owner of the premises, and
- You own less than 3 rental units, and
- Your former tenant has moved out of the premises, and
- The person you want to evict was invited to live in the premises with your former tenant before your tenant moved out, and
- You want to evict one person.
It is helpful to know the exact date or your best guess for the date that your former tenant moved out of the premises.
