Landlords, Courts, and Real Estate attorneys are all debating how to proceed under the new Federal Eviction Moratorium imposed by the September 4, 2020 Order handed down by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Some people believe that the moratorium is automatic and halts ALL evictions. This simply isn’t true.
There are specific limitations to the kinds of Evictions this Order will put on hold. There are strict criteria that most apply to any Tenant seeking this Order’s protection from Eviction. And, there are various non-rent Evictions that can move forward because the CDC Order will not apply in those Evictions.
