An eviction, or unlawful detainer action, is a court process used to regain possession when tenants breach a lease, fail to pay rent, or hold over after termination.

In California, eviction starts with a lawful notice to quit or pay rent, followed by filing an unlawful detainer action if the tenant does not comply. The court then determines possession and may issue a writ of possession to remove the tenant.
Timelines vary by court and case complexity. Typically, notices must be served within specified periods, hearings occur after responsive filings, and enforcement follows a judgment.
Defenses may include improper service, retaliatory actions, failure to follow proper notice procedures, or claims about habitability.
