Coming up with 20,000 dollars in a week isn’t a middle finger to squatters, it’s a complete lock out of the justice system to anyone who isn’t rich enough to be a land lord themselves.
This is peak, “the justice system protects everyone equally” bullshit.
“the justice system protects everyone equally” bullshit.
Which is an extension of the “same rules for everyone” bullshit. A works with the existing law, B doesn’t. It’s just rules same for everyone, right? But group 1 needs A every day, and doesn’t need B at all, while group 2 is the inverse. Obviously laws benefit group 1, but due to the quoted thing being accepted as truth by many people, the injustice stands.
Same as with “territorial integrity” when it’s the integrity of some squatter state genociding or expelling people whose land it squatted on, and with clueless or malicious bystanders saying that those people should be happy that it doesn’t bite pieces off (spolier alert - it does that too now) their nation-state because “international laws” are “the same for everyone”.
Illinois is considered renter friendly. You only need to give a 7 day notice to pay or quit before you file an eviction for non-payment. You can give the notice if the rent is one day late. Not sure about TN but it’s probably similar.
Yeah, my silly Euro brain didn’t think it through.
Seems like Tennessee takes at least 4 weeks after being late on a single payment. They have to send a two weeks notice and then they can evict you in two weeks.
So it’s more like two weeks until they can evict you, and two weeks to pack your stuff.
When the two week notice is up, then the landlord can file what is basically a lawsuit. Then the tenant has to get served notice of when the court date is. So it could take a month or two just to get in front of a judge. Then if the tenant wants to contest the eviction and go to trial a new court date will usually be set for trial. Then if the tenant loses the judge will give them a certain amount of time to move.
This is talking about appealing an eviction to a higher court after a tenant loses. You can see how someone could abuse that system to stay for several more months by filing a frivolous appeal.
You can see at the end of the article that there was a judgement reached in error before the court date and the judge told them they would have to appeal. So in order to fix someone else’s mistake they would have to post a years rent when they were probably behind on rent anyway.

People usually get evicted because they didn’t pay rent for quite a while.
I don’t think rich people have that issue.
