How long after you receive a notice of unlawful detainer from the courts do you receive the summons?

In: Civil Lawsuits [Edit categories]

Answer:

This varies by state. In general, the notice will give you a time frame (usually 3 days) in which to pay up, and if you don't pay, you can be evicted immediately after the stated period. For example, if the notice says you have three days to pay up, and you don't pay, the landlord can have you served with an eviction summons on the fourth day.
