An eviction, or unlawful detainer action, is a legal process to regain possession of a rental unit when terms of the lease are violated or rent is unpaid. It involves notices, filings, and, if needed, a judge’s decision and a writ of possession.

A formal notice informing a tenant that they must move out by a stated date, which starts the eviction timeline.
