Yes, me and my parted lost our job on April and we didn’t have money to pay rent or any fees to break the lease and because we have more than 50k in debt we are also planning to file for bankruptcy. We barely had money to buy food so we decided to move out before the rent was due. We sent an email to landlord and even the Mud let us know that the landlord told them that we left but they envicted us after on may * even tho we moved out on April *
I'm sorry to hear about your situation. In Texas, if you've already moved out, an eviction might not apply, but the landlord can still seek unpaid rent or damages. Since you're considering bankruptcy, would you like to discuss connecting with local lawyers who can better assist with your case?
I already have a lawyer and are acctually preparing to start paying him so he can file for my case, but the thing is that. We moved out on April * and we have a U-Haul receipt also we send an email to the landlord of may * and the mud contact us on may * acknowledge that landlord told them we moved out. But landlord went and file for enviction stating that we haven’t left the property on may *.
It sounds like a complicated situation. In Texas, if you’ve moved out and informed the landlord, eviction may not be appropriate. However, the landlord could still pursue claims for unpaid rent. It's good you have a lawyer to handle this. Make sure to provide your lawyer with all documentation, including the U-Haul receipt, email correspondence, and any notices from the landlord. This will help in preparing a defense or negotiating with the landlord.
I have a lawyer for the bankruptcy not for the enviction tho, my hearing is on */*. How many chances are that my case will be dismissed?
