         Eviction Procedure & Timeline  | 
    
| The following chart is based upon California law as of July
        2000.  You should check the appropriate current statutes for the
        correct procedures and time periods for California or any other state of
        interest.  Also, since procedures and time periods can vary among different jurisdictions within the same state, it is advised
        that you check with the Court office in your jurisdiction.
